... (c) Write down an equivalent integral equation. (d) In the method of successive (Picard) approximations to the solution, a first (constant) solution of y0 (t) = 1 is chosen. What is the next approximate solution? 4. Solve each of the following differential equations or initial value problems. ...

... • The electron in the H atom can go from one shell to a lower one by emitting a photon. The series of transitions from principal number n ≥ 2 to n = 1 is called the Lyman series 2 . The transitions are names by Greek letters: the transition from n = 2 to n = 1 is called Lyman-α, from 3 to 1 Lyman-β, ...

... just one wavefunction, Ψ(xe,ye,ze,xp,yp,zp,t). This wavefunction describes the joint probability of finding an electron at position xe,ye,ze, and a proton at position xp,yp,zp. This is a complex, time dependent field in six dimensions. In a typical nanostructure, there are often millions of interact ...
