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.

Starting with Equation 6.80, and using Equations 6.57, 6.61, 6.64, and 6.81, derive Equation 6.82.

Consider a particle of mass m that is free to move in a one-dimensional region of length L that closes on itself (for instance, a bead that slides frictionlessly on a circular wire of circumference L, as inProblem 2.46).

(a) Show that the stationary states can be written in the formn(x)=1Le2inx/L,(-L/2<x<L/2),

wheren=0,1,2,....and the allowed energies areEn=2mnL2.Notice that with the exception of the ground state (n = 0 ) 鈥 are all doubly degenerate.

(b) Now suppose we introduce the perturbation,H'=-V0e-x2/a2where aLa. (This puts a little 鈥渄imple鈥 in the potential at x = 0, as though we bent the wire slightly to make a 鈥渢rap鈥.) Find the first-order correction to En, using Equation 6.27. Hint: To evaluate the integrals, exploit the fact that aLato extend the limits from L/2toafter all, H鈥 is essentially zero outside -a<x<a.

E1=12Waa+WbbWaa-Wbb2+4Wab2(6.27).

(c) What are the 鈥済ood鈥 linear combinations ofnand-n, for this problem? Show that with these states you get the first-order correction using Equation 6.9.

En'=n0H'n0(6.9).

(d) Find a hermitian operator A that fits the requirements of the theorem, and show that the simultaneous Eigenstates ofH0and A are precisely the ones you used in (c).

For the harmonic oscillator[Vx=1/2kx2], the allowed energies areEN=(n+1/2)魔蝇,(n=0.1.2,..),whererole="math" localid="1656044150836" =k/mis the classical frequency. Now suppose the spring constant increases slightly:k(1+')k(Perhaps we cool the spring, so it becomes less flexible.)

(a) Find the exact new energies (trivial, in this case). Expand your formula as a power series in,, up to second order.

(b) Now calculate the first-order perturbation in the energy, using Equation 6.9. What ishere? Compare your result with part (a).

Hint: It is not necessary - in fact, it is not permitted - to calculate a single integral in doing this problem.

When an atom is placed in a uniform external electric field ,the energy levels are shifted-a phenomenon known as the Stark effect (it is the electrical analog to the Zeeman effect). In this problem we analyse the Stark effect for the n=1 and n=2 states of hydrogen. Let the field point in the z direction, so the potential energy of the electron is

H's=eEextz=eEextrcos

Treat this as a perturbation on the Bohr Hamiltonian (Equation 6.42). (Spin is irrelevant to this problem, so ignore it, and neglect the fine structure.)

(a) Show that the ground state energy is not affected by this perturbation, in first order.

(b) The first excited state is 4-fold degenerate: Y200,Y211,Y210,Y200,Y21-1Using degenerate perturbation theory, determine the first order corrections to the energy. Into how many levels does E2 split?

(c) What are the "good" wave functions for part (b)? Find the expectation value of the electric dipole moment (pe=-er) in each of these "good" states.Notice that the results are independent of the applied field-evidently hydrogen in its first excited state can carry a permanent electric dipole moment.

Suppose we perturb the infinite cubical well (Equation 6.30) by putting a delta function 鈥渂ump鈥 at the point(a/4,a/2,3a/4):H'=a3V0(x-a/4)(y-a/2)(z-3a/4).

Find the first-order corrections to the energy of the ground state and the (triply degenerate) first excited states.
