The Bohr model
  • Energy was quantized
  • Angular Momentum was quantized

9
Bohrs argument
Assume nucleus infinitely heavy Assume electron
is moving in circular orbit of radius,r,with
speed v then
10
Bohr assumed that the orbital angular momentum
was quantized i.e. Consequently we obtain
fixed values of

Axiomatic approach to the formulation of Quantum
Mechanics
  • We assume there exists a function
  • Which contains all the information about a system
    at time,t. We shall say that is the
    state of the system

19
Axiom
  • It is impossible to measure all the properties of
    a physical system simultaneously
  • Example and

20
  • The classical observable are related to linear
    operators acting which act on the wave functions
    to give eigenvalues which are the possible
    results of measurement
  • If the system is such that we know exactly what
    the value of an observable is then it is in an
    eigenstate ?n and the result of measurement will
    necessarily give us the associated eigenvalue

21
Classical Observables?Operators
22
  • Results of measurements are eigenvalues of
    operators
  • ?(r,t) represents a probability wave
  • Satisfies the Schrödinger equation
  • Wave function a sum(principle of superposition of
    states) over all possible
  • eigenstates

Lemma A potential is st V(-x)V(x) then assume
that for a given E the wave function is not
degenerate then these functions must have have a
definite parity

  • Eigenfunctions are orthogonal
  • Can project our value of cq

34
Continuity
  • ?satisfies a second order differential equation
    in (x,y,z)
  • And if V is any kind of ordinary function we must
    have
  • ?(?) to be continuous and have continuous first
    derivative
