The Hydrogen Atom
... It correctly predicts the spectral series for hydrogen, but fails predicting the same for atoms with 2 or more electrons. A more general approach was developed in 1925/6 by Erwin Schrodinger, Werner Heisenberg, and others, and is called quantum mechanics. ...

The true nature of the atom?
... The behavior of our everyday world can be described by classical, Newtonian, physics. However, at the end of the 1800s it was clear that Newtonian physics didn’t accurately describe the behavior of light and matter at the atomic scale. For example: Why atoms don’t collapse? Give that some thought… T ...

Quantum Numbers (6.5-9)
... 2s orbital is not degenerate (e.g., the same energy) with a 2p or a 1s orbital. The ml values are entirely dependent on the l values; each type of orbital has a set degeneracy. For an s-orbital, ml = 0, and degeneracy = 1. For a p-orbital, ml = -1, 0, +1, and degeneracy = 3. For a d-orbital, ml = -2 ...

6.1.2. Number Representation: States
... 6.1.2. Number Representation: States Consider a set of complete, orthonormal 1-particle (1-P) basis. For the sake of clarity, we shall assume the quantum numbers to be discrete. (Results for the continuous case can be obtained by some limiting procedure). To begin, we arrange the 1-P states by some ...

Quantum gravity
... For about 70 years, this wave-particle duality was explained by another unsettling tenet of quantum theory - the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Formulated by Werner Heisenberg in 1927 and recently made more precise, the theory puts an upper limit on knowledge. It says one can never know both the ...
