there is a equation for two spins in entangled
Hamiltonian: H=J(\vec{\sigma}^1\cdot\vec{\sigma}^2+\vec{\sigma}^2\cdot\vec{\sigma}^1)+B(\vec{\sigma}^1_z+\vec{\sigma}^2_z)

where \vec{\sigma}^i=(\sigma^i_x,\sigma^i_y,\sigma^i_z) are the pauli matrics for the ith (i=1,2) spin. J is the exchange constant ,

My difficulties: how can we solve the Hamiltonian to get the four eigenvalues?

thank you for helping me, and i want a detail reprentation.

Simply let H act on your four different spin states.

The triplet S_tot = 1, M=+1,0,-1

and the singlet S_tot = 0, M =0

Good luck

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!
