A system of mathematics used to describe the behavior of nature is called the "Mechanics" of the system being studied. For example, Newton's Laws of motion make up part of the mathematics known as "Classical Mechanics." For atomic and subatomic particles, a new mechanics was developed to describe their behaviors, because Classical Mechanics did not work for such small systems. Quantum Mechanics was first developed in 1925-26. In the complex mathematics which describes Quantum Mechanics, a set of 4 Quantum Numbers automatically emerges as the various equations are solved. The names and symbols of the 4 Quantum Numbers are: Principal (1), Angular Momentum (n), Magnetic (ms), Spin (m) O Principal (n), Angular Momentum (1), Magnetic (m). Spin (m.) O Primary (p), Magnetic (m), Momentum (m), Spin (s) O Primary (n), Angular Momentum (m), Magnetic (m). Spin (s)

The Stark effect is the change in energy of a system due to the presence of an electric field discovered by German physicist Johannes Stark in 1913. Consider the hydrogen atom. Its normally spherical 1s orbital distorts slightly when exposed to an electric field. If the electric field is considered to be in the z direction, then the field acts to introduce, or mix, some 2pz character in with the 1s orbital. The atom is said to be polarizable, and the extent to which it changes is considered a measure of the atoms polarizability which is designated by the letter , not to be confused with the spin function . The perturbation Hamiltonian is defined as H=eErcos, where e is the charge on the electron, E is the strength of the electric field, and r and represent coordinates of the electron. Evaluate the perturbation energy of the hydrogen atom. You will have to integrate all the three spherical polar coordinates in your evaluation of H. A similar effect, the Zeeman effect, exists for magnetic fields. It too can be treated using perturbation theory.
One of the most famous of the obsolete theories of the hydrogen atom was proposed by Bohr. It has been replaced by quantum mechanics but, by a remarkable coincidence (not the only one where the Coulomb potential is concerned), the energies it predicts agree exactly with those obtained from the Schrödinger equation. In the Bohr atom, an electron travels in a circle around the nucleus. The Coulombic force of attraction (Ze2/4πε0r2) is balanced by the centrifugal effect of the orbital motion. Bohr proposed that the angular momentum is limited to integral values of ħ. When the two forces are balanced, the atom remains in a stationary state until it makes a spectral transition. Calculate the energies of a hydrogenic atom using the Bohr model.

Let’s try building a one-dimensional crystal lattice from the scratch. Consider an atomic nucleus carrying Z numberof protons. Assume that the Coulomb’s law holds in this situation. We take many of such nuclei and start placing themat a distance a from each other along a straight line. So, we end up constructing a very long (perhaps, infinite if we couldactually have an infinite number of nuclei) straight chain of equi-spaced nuclei. Can you approximately draw the potentialenergy seen by a free electron in this lattice? A free electron is the one that is free to roam around the lattice, just likethe ones in a metal. A good way to attack this problem would be to start by drawing the potential energy of the electronwhen there was just one nucleus present. After this, you can think that when you bring the nuclei close, they start sensingeach others’ presence through the electric field.
