b) Energy of first excited state splits in three energies: ,:E1-2尘蝇2,E1andE1+2尘蝇2.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of hyperfine harmonic oscillator.

A harmonic oscillator is a system that experiences a restoring force F proportionate to the displacement X when it is moved from its equilibrium position, where k is a positive constant.

02

The ground state.

(a)

If the perturbation Hamiltonian is provided with: Find energy adjustments on the ground state and first excited state in a 3D harmonic oscillator.

H'=位虫2yz

Ground state in 3D harmonic oscillator,

|0>=|0>x|0>y|0>z

So first-order correction of ground state energy is:

E01=<0H'0>=<0x20><0y0><0z0>=0

Because<0y,z0>=0

03

The (triply degenerate) first excited state.

(b)

Because the first excited state is triply degenerate, we must first acquire the perturbation matrix W and then determine the eigenvalues.

The energy shifts of the non-perturbed initial excited state are equivalent to eigenvalues.

The first aroused state is described as follows:

|1>=|1>x|0>y|0>z|2>=|0>x|1>y|0>z|3>=|0>x|0>y|1>z

There are matrix elements to compute, but the majority of them are 0 because:0|y,z|0=0:

Wij=i|H'|j,i,j=2,31|H'|1=1|x2|10|y|00|z|0=01|H'|2=1|x2|00|y|10|z|0=02|H'|1=01|H'|3=1|x2|00|y|00|z|1=03|H'|1=02|H'|2=0|x2|01|y|10|z|0=03|H'|3=0|x2|00|y|01|z|1=02|H'|3=0|x2|01|y|00|z|1=2尘蝇2尘蝇2尘蝇=2尘蝇23|H'|2=2尘蝇2

Perturbation matrix W is equal to:

role="math" localid="1656049433676" W=2尘蝇2000001010

Now calculate eigenvalues

A=2尘蝇2det(W-E.I)=0-E000-EA0A-E=0-E(E2-A2)=0E=0orE12=A=2尘蝇2

Energy of first excited state splits in three energies:

:E1-2尘蝇2,E1andE1+2尘蝇2.

Question: Derive the fine structure formula (Equation 6.66) from the relativistic correction (Equation 6.57) and the spin-orbit coupling (Equation 6.65). Hint: Note tha j=l12t; treat the plus sign and the minus sign separately, and you'll find that you get the same final answer either way.

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.

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.

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

(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).
