A hydrogen atom is located in an area where there is both a uniform magnetic field and a uniform electric field that are parallel to each other. a) write out the Hamiltonian of perturbation (ignore the spin of the electron). b) use perturbation theory in order to calculate the first order correction to the energy levels n=1,2 c) is there any degeneracy left? Compare with situations in which there is a magnetic field or only an electric field.
Rewrite S₁ S₂ in terms of S², |S₁|², 5₂|² by using the identity |S² = |S₁ + S₂|² = |S₁|² + |5₂|² +25₁ · 5₂. Use this to show that the combined spin angular momentum basis 5² for the electron and proton spins is an eigenstate basis for this dipole interaction.
