Here. Generally problems from lower-division courses belong in the introductory physics forum while problems from upper-division courses belong here.
 
Thanks. Then I know to come here next time.

Good luck with your course

If there is somewhere better for me to share this doubt, please let me know and I'll transfer it right away.) I am currently reviewing Chapter 7 of Introduction to QM by Griffiths. I have been stuck for an hour or so trying to understand the last paragraph of this proof (pls check the attached file). It claims that we can express Ψ_{γ}(0) as a linear combination of...
