Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The average energy of an electron in a ring having
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.
