Hydrogen Atom-formaldehyde Reaction

where H-H-C and H-D-C are weak bonds and make a negligible contribution, leads to a value of -2 kcal. Therefore, E5-E2=1 kcal compared with the experimental value of 1.0 kcal. The preexponential factor for this pair of isotopic reactions can be calculated from the difference in the entropies of activation. Using the same loose complex as above and applying the expression derived by Bigeleisens ...

Structure of the Hydrogen Atom

It was demonstrated recently[1] that the correct mathematical expression for the total energy H of a particle is H = mv, where m is the relativistic mass and v is the velocity; not H = mc as was widely believed. In this paper, the equation H = mv will be used to calculate the energy levels in the spectrum of the hydrogen atom. It is demonstrated that the well-known Sommerfeld-Dirac formula is s...

The 2-dimensional hydrogen atom

In these notes we investigate a particular partial differential equation arising from the quantum mechanical description of a hydrogen atom. For simplicity we consider the atom in a 2-dimensional instead of a 3-dimensional universe. For convenience we put all fundamental constants of nature equal to 1. The problem. In quantum mechanics the electron is described by a so called wave function. A w...

Stochastic Ionization of Relativistic Hydrogen-like Atom

Stochastic ionization of higly excited relativistic hydrogenlike atom in the monochromatic field is considered. A theoretical analisis of chaotic dynamics of the electron based on Chirikov criterion is given. Critical value of the external field is evaluated analitically. ∗e-mail: [email protected]
