How Do You Solve the Symmetric Delta Potential Problem in Quantum Mechanics?
It only took till noon, but i found the problem in my derivation. The real problem did not lie in the symmetry of the problem, but of defining psi(-a) and psi(a) For an easy review we have the delta function at the origin: -There are decaying exponentials each side: region 1 is x<0 region 2...- lessheffield

How Do You Solve the Symmetric Delta Potential Problem in Quantum Mechanics?
Kuruman, I have attempted this method, and it gets messy quick. The main problem I have is attempting to sort through the amplitudes of 5 waves to get to one. I assumed my problem was setting up the wavefunctions and that if I could find a simplier representation then it would only be a...- lessheffield

How Do You Solve the Symmetric Delta Potential Problem in Quantum Mechanics?
This problem is a symmetric delta potential problem that I was given a few days ago and I can't seem to get the gist of it. Question: Find the spectrum and wave functions of a particle in the potential V(x)=G[d(x-a)+d(x-a)] Calculate the transmission and reflection amplitude. Where G can be...- lessheffield
