Inverse quantum mechanics of the hydrogen atom: A
... We see that the function Ψ is a general wave function of some kind. The three real space variables x, y, z describe a three-dimensional entity, and the variable t describes its behavior in time. The absence of cross derivative terms in the equation requires the existence of an orthogonal geometry. I ...

... If particle 1 is in a state a x 1 and particle 2 in a state b x 2 then (ignoring time) x 1, x 2 =a x 1 b x 2 , i.e. x 1, x 2 is the product of the two wavefunctions. However, electrons are indistinguishable from one-another in the sense that we cannot create an experimen ...

Quantum systems in one-dimension and quantum transport
... Quantum systems confined to low dimensions, such as spin chains, carbon nanotubes or cold atoms in optical lattices, often behave in a universal way that is efficiently described in terms of simple effective theories. These introductory lectures will review the bosonization approach for one-dimensio ...

Developing a new physics for atoms
... electrons were pulled into the nucleus by electrostatic attraction. Unless we constantly added energy to the electrons, their velocity would slow, and they would spiral into the nucleus and collapse the atom. But, in the subatomic quantum world, atoms are subject to quantum mechanics rather than the ...
