Harmonic oscillator and phonons
Consider a 1D-harmonic oscillator is in its nth state quantum mechanically with the wavefunction[itex]\psi_n(x)[/itex]. In other words, we can describe the system as if it has n phonons. Is there any relation between [itex]\psi_n(x)[/itex] and the n phonons' wave functions?
