Hi, just wondering whether the commutation relation [\phi,L_3]=i\hbar holds and similar uncertainty relation such as involving X and Px can be derived ?

thanks

testing that commutator is simple, since L_z \sim \frac{d}{d\phi}, let the commutator act on a function F(r,\phi,\theta) and then you\ll have it.

The same thing for [x,P_x]

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
