Hydrogen atom in a uniform electromagnetic field as an anharmonic oscillator

  • Published:
Lettere al Nuovo Cimento (1971-1985)

Summary

This work establishes, by means of the Kustaanheimo-Stiefel transformation, a connection between two branches of theoretical physics which are, in present times, the object of numerous studies: the quantum mechanics of anharmonic oscilators and of the hydrogen atom in a (strong) homogeneous and constant electromagnetic field.
