1st week [Electron-Photon Interactions]†

• 09.02
  • The Hamiltonian for the electron-photon interaction is given by &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;, in this equation &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; is the linear momentum, &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; is the charge of the particle, &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; is the vector potential, &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; is the particle's mass, &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; is the speed of light and &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; is the scalar potential. It is possible to check this by using the canonical equations from Hamilton, &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; and &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;.

• From those last equations together with the following identities &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; and &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; With all this considered it was possible to arrive at the equation of motion of a particle under an electromagnetic field, &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;.

• Next steps:

• Consider the wave functions from quantum well, hydrogen atom, and solve with the electromagnetic(electron-photon interaction) perturbation.

• 09.03
  • By looking at the previous Hamiltonian in a different shape, &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; where the term inside the brackets is actually the unperturbed hamiltonian, and the other terms are the perturbations that arise from the electomagnetic field influence.

• As the electromagnetic field is just a perturbation, it is not so strong, therefore it is possible to disregard &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;, and consider the perturbation Hamiltonian as &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;.

• Taking a monochromatic wave over a quantum well of length &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; it is possible to find the new wavefunction after taking the &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;.

• Next Steps:

• Find the actual new wavefunctions.

• 09.04
  • Following the condition for finding the perturbation result. The wave equations for the states &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;, initial (&tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;), and &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;, final (&tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;), are considered. Also for the perturbation, the Coulomb gauge will be chosen, &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;, as a result, the perturbation Hamiltonian will be &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;.

• So, &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; with &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; and &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; which would be &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;.

• Next Steps:

• Evaluate other transitions, in order to get the linear combination which it is the new wavefunction.

• 09.05
  • After evaluating the &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com; the result was &tex(): Error! cURL: Could not resolve host: chart.apis.google.com;.
