Question

Consider the three spherical harmonics (a) Y0,0, (b) Y2,–1, and (c) Y3,+3. (a) For each spherical harmonic, substitute the explicit form of the function taken from Table 7F.1 into the left-hand side of eqn 7F.8 (the Schrödinger equation for a particle on a sphere) and confirm that the function is a solution of the equation; give the corresponding eigenvalue (the energy) and show that it agrees with eqn 7F.10. (b) Likewise, show that each spherical harmonic is an eigenfunction of lˆz = (ℏ/i)(d/dϕ) and give the eigenvalue in each case.
