O Consider the kinetic energy matrix elements between Hydrogen states (n' = 4, l', m'| |P|²| m -|n = 3, l, m), = for all the allowed l', m', l, m values. What kind of operator is the the kinetic energy (scalar or vector)? Use this to determine the following. For what choices of the four quantum numbers (l', m', l, m) can the matrix elements be nonzero (e.g. (l', m', l, m) (0, 0, 0, 0),...)? Which of these nonzero values can be related to each other (i.e. if you knew one of them, you could predict the other)? In this sense, how many independent nonzero matrix elements are there? (Note: there is no need to calculate any of these matrix elements.)
In general, a system of quantum particles can never behave even approximately like a rigid body, but non-spherical nuclei and molecules are exceptions, and have certain rotational energy levels that are well described as states of a rigid rotator whose Hamiltonian is H 21 where I is the moment of inertia, and L^ is the angular momentum operator. a, What are the eigenvalues of the angular momentum operator? b.
