Hi all,

I've got this problem (which is attached as q1.jpg).

I've tried to solve it, but I'm stuck... my solution is also attached (my_sol1.jpg).

PLS help me :-(

Thnx

In your derivation of the EOM, you got some indices wrong and forgot an A^μ. Maybe there are also sign or coefficient errors, haven't checked it in detail. I propose you to redo it in more detail.
For the next step, derive your EOM once and calculate ( θ η^{μν} - ε^{μνα} ∂_α ) J_ν using your EOM and the derived version, which should give you the left side.
 
Thanks! I'll try it...

Do I know you from somewhere ? ;-)
 
Don't know if I have seen you, but if you were born in 1986, that's possible ... you have a private message.

Thread 'Need help understanding this figure on energy levels'

This figure is from "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" by Griffiths (3rd edition). It is available to download. It is from page 142. I am hoping the usual people on this site will give me a hand understanding what is going on in the figure. After the equation (4.50) it says "It is customary to introduce the principal quantum number, ##n##, which simply orders the allowed energies, starting with 1 for the ground state. (see the figure)" I still don't understand the figure :( Here is...

Thread 'Understanding how to "tack on" the time wiggle factor'

The last problem I posted on QM made it into advanced homework help, that is why I am putting it here. I am sorry for any hassle imposed on the moderators by myself. Part (a) is quite easy. We get $$\sigma_1 = 2\lambda, \mathbf{v}_1 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_2 = \lambda, \mathbf{v}_2 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_3 = -\lambda, \mathbf{v}_3 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ -1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} $$ There are two ways...
