Homework Statement


Two quarks of the same mass m, interact via the confining potential V=kr

-Use the Bohr model to find V,R,E of the bound system
-Determine the angular frequency of the emitted radiation by transition from n => w (??)
-For mc^2 = 2 Gev and K = .5GeV per ?? what are the values of V,R,E for u=1

Homework Equations



The Attempt at a Solution


Judging by the previous problem this should be simple but I have 0 experience with nuclear physics and I don't even know what these variables mean. On top of that I can't read my professor's handwriting so there may be errors. If someone could just give me a link to where I can see what this means and find the relevant equations that would be great. Thank you for any help.

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...
