Only a very few, very simple QM systems can be solved analytically The ones we’ve just looked at are analytical, or at least quasi-analytical, as is the hydrogen atom, which we will review in the next lecture. But that’s about it for analytical solutions. Everything else involves some numerical com ...

Lecture 7: Stationary Perturbation Theory In most practical
... cannot be solved exactly and one has to resort to some scheme of finding approximate solutions, preferably by some method of iteration that allows one, at least in principle, to find the solution with any desired accuracy. One of the most widely used such methods is perturbation theory. Perturbation ...

INTRODUCTION TO QUANTUM MECHANICS I I mention in class
... Let us make a crude model of a + H2 molecule (that is two protons and one electron). Imagine the protons are held at fixed positions. The electron can be bound to each one of the protons, so we approximate the Hilbert space by a two-dimensional space. When the electron is bound to one proton it has ...

Quantized Vibrational Energy for a diatomic molecule
... Where do the energy equations come from? The motion of atoms, molecules, electrons … is described by Quantum Mechanics. The central equation of Quantum Mechanics is the Schrödinger Equation. Solving the Schrödinger equation for a ‘problem’, results in an expression for the energy of the particle(s) ...
