Chaos and Complex Systems Seminar
Hydrogen energy levels in n dimensions via group theory
Event Details
Date
Tuesday, September 24, 2013
Time
12-1 p.m.
Location
4274 Chamberlin Hall
Description
Adam Bincer, UW Department of Physics, discusses a generalization to n dimensions of a group-theoretical treatment of the hydrogen energy levels by Pauli in 1926. Using Lie groups, he will show that the non-relativistic hydrogen atom in n dimensions is governed by the rotation group in (n+1) dimensions.
