P(E) = ∫φ*(r)ψ(r)dr from -∞ to ∞

The Attempt at a Solution


To find the probability, I know I have to use this equation:

P(E) = ∫φ*(r)ψ(r)dr from -∞ to ∞

My question is, what is the energy eigenstate, φ*(r)? Is it the measured energy they gave us? I don't have a full understanding of this.
If it is the measured energy, integrating it would just give me 0.
Thank you.

You'll have to find the wave function that corresponds to the given energy eigenstate.
