The hydrogen atom perturbed by a 1-dimensional Simple Harmonic Oscillator (1d-SHO) potential

The hydrogen atom perturbed by a constant 1-dimensional weak quadratic potential λz 2 is solved at first-order perturbation theory using the eigenstates of the total angular momentum operator - the coupled basis. Physical applications of this result could be found, for example, in the study of a qua...

Description
Summary:The hydrogen atom perturbed by a constant 1-dimensional weak quadratic potential λz 2 is solved at first-order perturbation theory using the eigenstates of the total angular momentum operator - the coupled basis. Physical applications of this result could be found, for example, in the study of a quadratic Zeeman effect weaker than fine-structure effects, or in a perturbation caused by instantaneous generalised van der Waals interactions.
