I have a problem to solve.

Table 1 shows the lowest rotational and vibrational levels of the HD+ ion and is based on experiments by Wing et al (phys rev 36, 1488 (1976)) and theoretical calculations by Bishop (Phys Rev Letters 37,484 (1976)). What numbers would it be if HD^+ is replayced with D^+_2? (deuterium)

Table 1.
N=0, L=1 <-> N=1, L=0: 1869cm^-1
N=0, L=2 <-> N=1, L=1: 1824cm^-1
N=0, L=0 <-> N=1, L=0: 1913cm^-1

I would be really grateful if someone would show me the solution.

Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
The value of H equals ## 10^{3}## in natural units, According to : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units, ## t \sim 10^{-21} sec = 10^{21} Hz ##, and since ## \text{GeV} \sim 10^{24} \text{Hz } ##, ## GeV \sim 10^{24} \times 10^{-21} = 10^3 ## in natural units. So is this conversion correct? Also in the above formula, can I convert H to that natural units , since it’s a constant, while keeping k in Hz ?
