Yukawa potential Definition and 22 Threads

Hello, I was going to solve numerically the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues problem of the schrödinger equation with Yukawa Potential. I thought that the Boundary condition of the eigenfunctions could be the same as in the case of Coulomb potential. Am I wrong? In that case, do you know some...

Hello, I was going to solve with a calculator the eigenvalues problem of the Schrödinger equation with Yukawa potential and I was thinking that the boundary conditions on the eigenfunctions could be the same as in the case of Coulomb potential because for r -> 0 the exponential term goes to 1...

So this is the problem: My only point of confusion right now is in what the value of a is... I'm having trouble finding it anywhere, and online stuff about the yukawa potential just states that it's a parameter. Thanks for any help! Edit: It might be worth noting that gamma equals kq1q2.

I’ve seen the uncertainty principle used to calculate the ground state energy for things like hydrogen and the harmonic oscillator, but can this be done for the Yukawa potential where you have an exponential?

Homework Statement The photon is normally assumed to have zero rest mass. If the photon did have a tiny mass, this would alter the potential energy the electron feels in the hydrogen atom (due to the Coulomb interaction with the proton). The potential then becomes yukawa potential...

Homework Statement (a) Calculate the equations of motion for a massive vector ##A_{\mu}## from the Lagrangian ##\mathcal{L}=-\frac{1}{4}F_{\mu\nu}^{2}+\frac{1}{2}m^{2}A_{\mu}^{2}-A_{\mu}J_{\mu},## where ##F_{\mu\nu}=\partial_{\mu}A_{\nu}-\partial_{\nu}A_{\mu}##. Assuming...

Hello, I am trying to find Fourier Bessel Transform (i.e. Hankel transform of order zero) for Yukuwa potential of the form f(r) = - e1*e2*exp(-kappa*r)/(r) (e1, e2 and kappa are constants). I am using the discrete sine transform routine from FFTW ( with dst routine). For this potential...

Hello there! I was doing my Gravitation problems and I found this problem that I'm unable to solve. Yukawa's theory for nuclear forces states that the potential energy corresponding to the attraction force produced by a proton and a neutron is: U(r) = \frac{k}{r}e^{-\alpha r},\ k<0,\ \alpha > 0...

Homework Statement a)Show that the yukawa potential is a valid static-field euation b)Show this solution also works Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution Part (a) Using the relation given, I got LHS = \frac{e^{-\mu r}}{r} \left[ (m^2 - \mu^2) - \frac{2\mu}{r} - \frac{2}{r^2}...

Please, can anyone explain me the steps made in the resolution of this integral? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_integrals_in_quantum_field_theory#Yukawa_Potential:_The_Coulomb_potential_with_mass

While preparing for an exam I came across an integral of the form \int_0^\infty dx\;e^{-\alpha x}\sin{q x} with q,\alpha>0. My question will be regarding my solution to the integral which I present as follows: I expand the sine function as a Taylor series and differentiate with respect to...

1. Yukawa Potential So reading about the yukawa potential I notice that the constant k is related to the inverse of the effective distance of the force from what I've been reading. Thing is everything I read about the strong force states it has infinite range but simply has a maximum potential...

Homework Statement This is not yet an attempt at solving a problem. I just need confirmation on that I'm on the right track. So, I am supposed to derive an expression for the radial force function from the given Yukawa-function. Homework Equations U(r) = -(r/r0)U0 exp-(-r/r0) The...

Homework Statement The Yukawa potential is given by: V_{\gamma}(r) = -\frac{q^{2}}{4\pi \epsilon_{0}r}e^{-\gamma r} Where \gamma is a constant. This describes a screened Coulomb potential. I. Sketch the radial dependence of this potential. II. State the radial Schodinger...

Say you have a Yukawa potential (a.k.a. screened coulomb potential) V(r) = -\frac{e^2}{r}e^{-rq} where q is the inverse screening length, how would you find the critical q for having bound states? I'm working on reproducing N.F. Mott's argument about the critical spacing of a lattice of...

I would appreciate an explanation of Yukawa potential

Homework Statement I have been given the following assignment: "The meson moves within the nucleus under the influence of a screened Coulomb potential known as the Yukawa potential. Given that the mass of a meson is about 270 times the mass ot the electron and that the effective extent of...

If I had was given a yukawa potential of the form: \text{YL}[\text{r$\_$}]=\left(\left.g_L{}^{\wedge}2\right/r\right) \text{Exp}\left[-\mu _Lr (c/\hbar )\right] I put the c/h in the exponent to make it unitless, but what do I do about the outside? i'm given the coupling constant is 0.3. Just...

Can someone provide some help with a derivation in Peskin and Schroeder (equation 4.126, p.122): V(\bold{x}) = \int \frac{d^3q}{(2\pi)^3} \frac{-g^2}{|\bold{q}|^2+m^2}e^{i\bold{q}\cdot\bold{r}} = \frac{-g^2}{4\pi^2}\int_0^\infty dq\; q^2\; \frac{e^{iqr}-e^{-iqr}}{iqr}}...
