The wave equation is linear (no ψ 2 (x, t) or any of its derivatives) and therefore if ψ1 and ψ2 are solutions to the equation, then ψ = A1 ψ1 + A2 ψ2 is also a solution, with A1 , A2 arbitrary constants. This is the same principle of superposition which appears in Maxwell’s equations (which are als ...

... As anticipated above, the relativistic e↵ect removes the degeneracy in the quantum number l. Notice that the size of the correction is of order (Z↵)4 . This is smaller than the original energy (7.3) by a factor of (Z↵)2 . Although we may not have realised it, (Z↵)2 is the dimensionless ratio which w ...
