I came across this UA article from 2013, regarding their professor Andrei Lebed. http://uanews.arizona.edu/story/testing-einstein-s-e-mc2-in-outer-space The article is written for laymen, and I'm no expert myself, but it seems to suggest that there won't be any atomic absorption for hydrogen in...

Consider the Dirac equation for bounded electron in hydrogen atom. I am trying to get a clear physical explanation for all mathematical terms that appear in the Hamiltonian and energy spectrum. Kinetic and Coulombic potential and rest energies are the first terms and easy to identify. Then we...

Hey there - I think I have an issue with my 3D density plots of the probability density of the Coulomb wave function. The reason I think something is going wrong is because my plots of |ψ(n=2, l=1, m=-1)|² and |ψ(2, 1, 1)|² are identical, while I would expect them to have the same shape but be...

Hello Everybody, I'm looking into spectral analysis, and I couldn't find anything online about the spectra of different isotopes in discharge tubes (i.e. neon signs and the like ). Do different hydrogen isotopes have different spectra? If so, where could I find the data on the spectra? Thanks...

Question: In the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, the speed of the electron is approximately 2.18 × 106 m/s. Find the central force acting on the electron as it revolves in a circular orbit of radius 5.02 × 10−11 m. Answer in units of N. Comment on Attempt: Ok I tried using the centripetal...

I understand that the result of the hydrogen emission spectrum experiment was that only certain wavelengths of light were emitted and that led to the conclusion that electrons emit light when they relax and that they absorb light when they get excited. How does that prove that the energy for...

Dear PF Forum, Why in "Contact" film in 1997 if I remember. The frequency for receving signal from aliens is Hydrogen times Pi? I can understand, at least grasp, that the frequency uses Hydrogen frequency, because it's the most simple element. Can't use 92.0 MHz as Sonora Radio in Jakarta...

Good afternoon, Does the selection rules have a condition on \Delta n ? I have not found a website or a book that show transitions between 2S_{1/2} and 2P_{3/2}, that's why I was wondering if \Delta n = 0, with respect to the other selection rules, are allowed transitions. Thank you for your...

I've read a few papers regarding the effects of a uniform magnetic field on water solutions, but I'm a complete illiterate when it comes to deciphering the jargon. So far, many papers confirm that a uniform magnetic field strengthens hydrogen bonds and can increase the redox potential. I've...

Homework Statement We have a crude model for the polarization of a hydrogen atom, by approximating its 1s orbital with a uniformly charged ball of radius a. What is the (negative) charge density of the electron cloud? What is the electric field inside the cloud, at the point with radius vector...

Hi guys, I consider the qm-derivation of the electronic states of hydrogen. There are two different derivations (I consider only the coulomb-force): 1) the proton is very heavy, so one can neglect the movement 2) the proton moves a little bit, so one uses the relative mass ##\mu## The...

Does laser light from a powerful violet laser with wavelength 405 nm create significant ionization in a gas (Hydrogen or Helium) if shone through it? Will there be a streak of ionized molecules/atoms in the beam, so to speak? Can that ionization be detected easily with a voltmeter? How effective...

The answer according to my booklet is 1.6734×10-24 (g), but I don't understand how we got this answer. proton: 1.6725×10-24 neutron: 1.6748×10-24 electron: 0.0009×10-24 To get the mass, I added protons with neutrons, but I got 3.3473×10-24. What am I doing wrong?

Induced dipoles result in Van der Waals' forces and permanent dipoles in hydrogen bonds, right? But how do you know is a compound has formed hydrogen bonds or Van der Waals' forces? For example, HF forms hydrogen bonds while HCl forms Van der Waals' forces and not hydrogen bonds. But in HCl, H...

Hydrogen sulphide has the same structure as water. The bonding in water is 104.5 degrees. As both have two bond pairs and two lone pairs of electron, shouldn't the bond angle in hydrogen sulphide be 104.5 degrees? Why is it 92 degrees? Is there anyway one can calculate the bond angles? Thanks.

I am interested in what the recoil velocity of an initially stationary hydrogen atom in free space would be when it emits a Lyman alpha photon. I tried to do the calc and got about 3 metres per second which seems rather high.

Double stranded DNA are bind with hydrogen bonds in between the nitrogenous bases, Usually we use high temperature for denature,so can we break the hydrogen bonds with phonon because shorter wavelength give rise to heat, weather it is possible to denature the DNA?

I want to know spatial distribution (concentration) of hydrogen and phosphorus in silicon oxide film with thickness of 1 micrometer. What is the simplest possible way to obtain such distributions with adequate resolution (~50 nm)?

Hi I've read sufficient literature on Ice/Water expansion to understand that when water freezes into a lattice, the hydrogen bonds between molecules are longer than they are in liquid water, hence ice expands. However, everything I've read seems to skip over the reason why with statements like...

Absorbtion spectra can be be observed by passing a WHite light ( light containing Wavelength from appx. 400nm to 700nm). Now here's My confusion! if We pass this Light from Hydrogen, It should not show dark lines in continuous band. ... (as to obsorb the Light of Visible region, It's electron...

I've read a fews post about liquid hydrogen boil off, but could use a bit more clarification; insight on the following thought experiment would be really helpful: What happens if I take a 1 L steel vessel, put 1 L of liquid H2 into it, seal it off, and let it sit in a room at 25C? The density...

Provided the electron absorbs light of frequency ##f##, if the electron's initial energy was ##E##, is the energy now ##E + hf##? In other words, does it absorb all of that energy?

What's the mass difference between a hydrogen atom and it's constituent particles when they are free, I'm talking about the proton and the electron, not the quarks that make up the proton.

Hi, One of the main problems of the Rutherford model is the fact that the electrons are accelerated and hence should lose energy due to radiation. Bohr's model doesn't resolve this, it only postulates that the energy levels are quantized and energy can only be emitted or absorbed by jumping...

Hey I was reading through a text and came across: I can understand the second statement from the Pauli matrices... However I think that I don't understand the 1st statement as it is... why would the diagonal elements of an odd-operator be zero if parity is definite?
