An atom, with atomic mass A = 22 is trapped in a harmonic oscillator with angular frequency 24.5 rad/s. If the atom is cooled into its quantum ground state, what is the spatial rms width Δx (in microns) of its Gaussian probability distribution? [Δx is similar to a classical standard deviation]
) What are the allowed values for total spin angular momentum of the hydrogen atom
having 1 proton and 1 electron, a deuterium atom and a tritium atom? Note: Your analysis should be
restricted to just the spin angular momentum. The problem is not asking about orbital angular
momentum. Based on your results, which atom types (hydrogen, deuterium, tritium) will respond as a
composite boson?
