what the energy spectrum to second order in the field strength for a spherical shell?

Forgive my inorance, but I am not familiar with a quantum system that is referred to as 'a spherical shell', my best guess would be 'spherical well' but that would still not unambiguously determine the field strength. Perhaps it's just me, but maybe you could provide a clarification, what is the Hamiltonian for this system?

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
