Exercise 6.4
Consider an anisotropic three-dimensional harmonic oscillator potential
acy
= { m (w² x ² + w} y² + w? 2²).
V (x, y, z) = = m(o² x² +
@z.
(a) Evaluate the energy levels in terms of wx, @y, and
(b) Calculate [Ĥ, Î₂]. Do you expect the wave functions to be eigenfunctions of 1²?
(c) Find the three lowest levels for the case @x = @y= = 2002/3, and determine the degener-
of each level.
