I need to normalize the following wave function:
psi= Cexp(-abs(x))exp(-iwt)cos(pix)
I know that when squaring it, the time dependent part drops out, which is good, but what I seem to be left with is
Psi^2=C^2exp(-2abs(x))cos^2(pix)
Which seems like a fairly complicated integral to compute. I'm thinking that there is something that I'm missing about this particular wave function that will make it easier to integrate?
Any help?
Cheers,
