Graduate Polyatomic quantum harmonic oscillator
Thanks for your reply. That certainly makes sense, but from what I understand it is possible to make that equation separable, through a change of coordinates or something. The form you wrote will have cross-multiplied terms. How would you go about showing that it can be transformed into a...- GOLDandBRONZE

Graduate Polyatomic quantum harmonic oscillator
Hi! Would anyone be able to point me toward a detailed explanation of determining the Hamiltonian of a polyatomic quantum oscillator? My current text does not explain the change of coordinates ("using normal coordinates or normal modes") in detail. All I can find is material on a diatomic...- GOLDandBRONZE
