Thank you very much for taking the time to help me.

General method of solving the Schrödinger equation of atoms and molecules by Hiroshi Nakatsuji. Attached is a pdf of this paper. If you would like anymore of his papers on the subjects, I have pdf's of almost all of them. <Moderator's note: attachment deleted>

To be honest, I'm having a hard time understanding what the Dirac bracket means as well. I will explain where these expressions are coming from, and perhaps that will give you more insight as to what everything is supposed to mean. I'm working through a series of papers on a new numerical...

What do you mean spurious? Also, could you be more precise on what you mean by ##g## and ##H## cannot move past one another? You are correct in that they certainly do not commute in the cases I am dealing with. The point of expanding these expressions is to calculate the scalar that is obtained...

Thanks for letting me know!

Hello everyone, I have been working through some research papers on a topic that really interests me, but I believe I am misunderstanding a few things about Dirac Notation. I have expressions that read: \begin{align*} &< \psi_n \mid g(H - E_{n+1}) \mid \psi_n> \text{,} \\ &< \psi_n \mid (H -...

Hello everyone, I'm currently getting my grad school applications put together right now (PhD program for physics), and I could really use some help editing my statement of purpose. If anyone would be willing to look it over and give some suggestions, I would really appreciate it! Also, if...

Hello forum members, As I've begun the second semester of my third year in undergraduate, I've found myself in a very overwhelming circumstance. I'm taking an incredibly large course load, and I'm quite worried I will not be able to pull this off. I'm taking Electricity and Magnetism...

Hello, I’m a new to this forum, so I’ll start by sharing a little about myself. I’m a chemical physics major in my junior year at Adams State University. I’m currently applying to all the REU’s I can, in hopes that I make myself a valuable applicant for grad school. I’m planning to attend CU...
