The de Sitter groupL 4,1 and the bound states of hydrogen atom

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

Assuming that bound states of the nonrelativistic hydrogen atom are basis vectors of a unitary irreducible representation of the 4 + 1 de Sitter group, the generators of this group are builtclassically in terms ofr andp using Poisson brackets.

Riassunto

Nell’ipotesi che gli stati legati dell’atomo di idrogeno non relativistico siano i vettori fondamentali di una rappresentazione irriducibile unitaria del gruppo di de Sitter 4 + 1, si costruiscono classicamente i generatori di questo gruppo in funzione dir ep facendo uso delle parentesi di Poisson.
