    Graduate Effect of the raising operator on an l=1 m=1 state

    Pretty basic question but I was wondering what the result of acting the raising operator on an l=1, m=1 quantum state for a hydrogen wavefunction would be. Specifically, L+|1,1> = ? I know that normally L+|l,m>=hbar(l(l+1)-m(m+1))1/2|l,m+1> but I wasn't sure if the eigenstate remained...
