What is the “central-field approximation” and why is it only an approximation?
Suppose a quanton's wavefunction psi(x) at a given time is shown below, where A is an unspecified constant and a = 1.5 nanometers. My table of integrals shows the result below. If we perform an experiment to locate the quanton at this time, what would be the probability of a result within +/- 0.1 nanometers of the origin? (Hint: note that 0.1 nanometers is pretty small compared to the range over which the exponential varies significantly. You should not therefore have to actually calculate an integral.)
(Hint: the answer is 7.5%)

Explain the concept.arrow_forwardRead This! The attractive and repulsive forces in an atom are rather complex. An electron is attracted to the protons in the nucleus, but it is also repelled by the other electrons in the atom. It is important to note however that the attractive force of the nucleus is NOT divided up among the electrons in the atom. Each electron gets approximately the full attractive force of the nucleus (minus the repulsive effects of other electrons). Compare the diagram below to set D in Model 3.

- I am struggling with getting this question done and need some help solving it, explain and make sure the answer is 100% correct. When a fast electron (i.e., one moving at a relativistic speed) passes by a heavy atom, it interacts with the atom's electric field. As a result, the electron's kinetic energy is reduced; the electron slows down. In the meantime, a photon of light is emitted. The kinetic energy lost by the electron equals the energy Eγ�� of a photon of radiated light: Eγ=K−K′��=�−�′, where K� and K′�′ are the kinetic energies of the electron before and after radiation, respectively. This kind of radiation is called bremsstrahlung radiation, which in German means "braking radiation" or "deceleration radiation." The highest energy of a radiated photon corresponds to the moment when the electron is completely stopped. Part A.
