Question
Chapter 12, Problem 12.33E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason as to why the integral representing the first-order correction can be solved analytically and be exact is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Perturbation theory assumes that a system can be approximated as a known, solvable system. The difference between the known system and system of interest is small and additive. Thus, the Hamiltonian for the real system can be written as given below.
