1 Physics 03, Fall 01 Modern Physics. Monday, Oct. 8 th, 01. Finish up examples for Ch. 8 Computer Exercise. Announcements: Take home Exam #1: Average 84.1, Average both 63.0 Quiz on Friday on Ch. 8 or Ch. 9 Submit a detailed outline of your paper by Monday, Oct. 9th

2 The General Equation was ψ (r ) = R(r)Θ(θ)Φ(φ) We have now solved for Θ(θ)Φ(φ) The solution for Θ(θ)Φ(φ) are Spherical Harmonics Y l m l (θ,φ) ψ (r ) = R(r)Y l m l (θ,φ) m l = 0,±1,±,... l m l l m l l

3 m d ( rr) + U dr eff ( rr) = E( rr) The final solution is ψ (r ) = R n,l (r)y l m l (θ,φ) a 0 = c ( ) ke mc

5 In General E n0 = m( ) ke n : Bohr model The Rydberg series are reproduced, but the physics is different. There are selection rules for optical excition or emission Δn any value Δl = ±1 Δm l = 0,±1 If there is an electron in the 3d state what lines will you observe?

6 m( ) ke E n0 = E nl > =E n0 = E 0 n n : Bohr model Which transitions are allowed Photon carries angular momentum Conservation of total angular momentum l f l i = 1 or Δl=±1 Optical Transition l f l i = 1 or Δl=±1

7 When we consider multi-electron systems the amplitude of the state at r=0 will become important. For small r all of the r /a R n0 states Ae For small r all of the r /a R n1 states Are For small r all of the R n states Ar r /a e If you are and l. one or more of these plots you should be able to determine n

8 I put an electron in the 4f level. It decays to the ground state, what are all possible emission energies? Δl ± 1, but it has to decay so from f d, must be 3d ΔE= = 0.66eV Next d p, must be p ΔE= = 1.85eV Next p s, must be 1s ΔE= = 10.eV What if this was singly ionized He? Can it go from the 4f 4d???
