Hello,
I'm trying to solve for the allowed energies with the WKB approximation of the Schrodinger equation, using the Morse potential.
So I have (as per equation 35 at http://hitoshi.berkeley.edu/221a/WKB.pdf),
\int_a^b \sqrt{2m(E-V(x))}dx=\left(n+\frac{1}{2}\right)\pi\hbar
However, how do I integrate this between the two turning points (those x such that V(x)=E) when they are complex? I would appreciate a reference to any numerical algorithms I could use.
Thank you!
