Consider a plane-wave solution to the free Schrödinger equation (V = 0) in one space dimension, with momentum pi. At time t = 0, the wavefunction takes the form Up (0,0) = P12/h. The lower index pı labels the momentum of this state. 1) What does the wavefunction look like at a later time t? 2) Next, consider another plane-wave state with a different momentum p2, with the wavefunction at t = 0 taking the form Up (2,0) = 1222/h....

2. The hydrogen atom [8 marks] The time-independent Schrödinger equation for the hydrogen atom in the spherical coordinate representation is where ao-top- 0.5298 10-10rn is the Bohr radius, and μ is the electon-proton reduced mass. Here, the square of the angular momentum operator L2 in the spherical coordinate representation is given by: 2 (2.2) sin θー sin θ 00 The form of the Schrödinger equation means that all energy eigenstates separate into radial and angular motion, and we can write...

2. Schrodinger equation In quantum mechanics, physical quantities cor- respond to Hermitian operators. In particular, the total energy of the system corresponds to the Hamiltonian operator H, which is a hermitian operator The 'state of the system' is a time dependent vector in an inner product space, l(t)). The state of the system obeys the Schrodinger equation We assume that there are no time-varying external forces on the system, so that the Hamiltonian operator H is not itself time-dependent a)...
