Homework Statement
If an arbitrary intial state function for a particle in a box is expanded in the discrete series of eigenstates of the Hamiltonian relevant to the box configuration, one obtains:
[tex]\psi(x,0) = \Sigma^{\infty}_{n=1}b_{n}(0)\varphi_{n}(x)[/tex]
If the particle is free, we obtain:
[tex]\psi(x,0) = \int^{\infty}_{-\infty}b(k)\varphi(k)dk[/tex]
(a)
What are the dimensions of:
abs(b_{n})^2
and abs(b(k))^2?
I don't understand what they mean by dimensions! any hints?
