Work out the matrix elements of HZ'andHfs'construct the W matrix given in the text, for n = 2.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Hz'11=;Hz'22=-;Hz'33=2;Hz'44=-2.

,Hz'55=(2/3),Hz'66=(1/3),Hz'77=-(2/3),Hz'88=-(1/3),Hz'56=Hz'65=-(2/3),Hz'78=Hz'87=-(2/3)

Step by step solution

01

Using Fine-Structure Formula.

We get the complete Fine-Structure Formula is,

Efs1=En22mc23-4nj+1/2

02

Working out the matrix elements of HZ' and Hfs' .

Using Equation 6:66,

Efs1=E222mc23-8j+1/2=E1232mc23-8j+1/2;E1mc2=-22,

So.

Efs1=-E132223-8j+1/2=13.6eV6423-8j+1/2=3-8j+1/2.

Efs1=En22mc23-4nj+1/2

For

j=1/21,2,6,8Hfs1=(3-8)Hfs1=-5.

Forj=3/23,4,5,7

Hfs1=3-82Hfs1=-

This confirms all the 纬 terms in -W (p. 281).

Meanwhile, Hz'=(e/2m)BextLz+2Sz,1,2,3,4are Eigen states of LzandSz for these there are only diagonal elements:

HZ'=e2m(L+2S)Bext

Hz'=e2mBextml+2msHz'=ml+2ms;Hz'11=;Hz'22=-;Hz'33=2;Hz'44=-2.

This confirms the upper left corner of -W.

Finally:

Lz+2Sz5=+23|101212Lz+2Sz6=-13|101212Lz+2Sz7=-23|1012-12Lz+2Sz8=-13|1012-12so,Hz'55=(2/3),Hz'66=(1/3),Hz'77=-(2/3),Hz'88=-(1/3),Hz'56=Hz'65=-(2/3),Hz'78=Hz'87=-(2/3)

which confirms the remaining elements.

Show thatP2is Hermitian, butP4is not, for hydrogen states withl=0. Hint: For such statesis independent ofand, so

(a) Find the second-order correction to the energies(En2)for the potential in Problem 6.1. Comment: You can sum the series explicitly, obtaining -for odd n.

(b) Calculate the second-order correction to the ground state energy(E02)for the potential in Problem 6.2. Check that your result is consistent with the exact solution.

Consider a charged particle in the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator potential. Suppose we turn on a weak electric field (E), so that the potential energy is shifted by an amountH'=-qEx.(a) Show that there is no first-order change in the energy levels, and calculate the second-order correction. Hint: See Problem 3.33.

(b) The Schr枚dinger equation can be solved directly in this case, by a change of variablesx'x-(qE/尘蝇2). Find the exact energies, and show that they are consistent with the perturbation theory approximation.

Question: Consider a quantum system with just three linearly independent states. Suppose the Hamiltonian, in matrix form, is

H=V0(1-o0000o0o2)

WhereV0is a constant, andois some small number(1).

(a) Write down the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the unperturbed Hamiltonian(o=0).

(b) Solve for the exact eigen values of H. Expand each of them as a power series ino, up to second order.

(c) Use first- and second-order non degenerate perturbation theory to find the approximate eigen value for the state that grows out of the non-degenerate eigenvector ofH0. Compare the exact result, from (a).

(d) Use degenerate perturbation theory to find the first-order correction to the two initially degenerate eigen values. Compare the exact results.

Suppose the Hamiltonian H, for a particular quantum system, is a function of some parameter let En()and n()be the eigen values and

Eigen functions of. The Feynman-Hellmann theorem22states that

En=(nHn)

(Assuming either that Enis nondegenerate, or-if degenerate-that the n's are the "good" linear combinations of the degenerate Eigen functions).

(a) Prove the Feynman-Hellmann theorem. Hint: Use Equation 6.9.

(b) Apply it to the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator,(i)using =(this yields a formula for the expectation value of V), (II)using =(this yields (T)),and (iii)using =m(this yields a relation between (T)and (V)). Compare your answers to Problem 2.12, and the virial theorem predictions (Problem 3.31).
