Looking for help on Lancsoz algorithm to solve schrodinger equ

AI Thread Summary
To find the probability density function (PD) for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd orbitals of a hydrogen atom, one should refer to resources discussing the wavefunction, particularly the equation for ψ. The three quantum numbers—n, l, and m—are essential for describing each orbital. The probability density is calculated by multiplying the wavefunction ψ by its complex conjugate. Additional documentation on these concepts can enhance understanding of the orbital characteristics. Understanding these principles is crucial for solving the Schrödinger equation in this context.

Dear frnds,
if we take an hydrogen atom and we wish to find out the PD function of 1st, 2nd and 3rd orbital. please help me finding out some doc on it.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Which 2nd and 3rd orbital?

Go to this link. If it doesn't scroll you to the right portion you are looking for section on Wavefunction. Specifically, equation for ψ. Notice n, l, and m. These are the 3 quantum numbers describing an orbital.

PD is given by ψ multiplied by its own complex conjugate.
