Homework Statement
Non Interacting Particles Interact with a external harmonic Potential. What are the energy levels of the system, and the partition functions when assuming the particles are (b) Bosons and (c) Fermions
Homework Equations
Energy of the system
E=(ρ1)^2/2m + (ρ2)^2/2m+ mω^2/2 (x1+x2)
ρ= momentum
ω=angular frequency of the system
The Attempt at a Solution
The energy levels for a single oscillator are given by E=hbar ω (n + 1/2)
I am not sure to go from here and how to incorperate the fact that there are two particles in the system
Any help would be great!
