If you have a system with two levels of energy. Prove that the probabilities of absorption and emission stimulated by black body radiation are equal
The first four Hermite polynomials of the quantum oscillator areH0 = 1, H1 = 2x, H2 = 4x2 − 2, H3 = 8x3 − 12x.  Let p(x) = 12x3 − 8x2 − 12x + 7. Using the basis H = {H0, H1, H2, H3}, find the coordinate vector ofp relative to H. That is, find [p]H. This is a textbook question, not a graded question
