Question
Consider a one-dimensional potential prole in spherical coordinates given
by
V (r) = -25 r < R;
V (r) = 15 R < r < 2R;
V (r) = 0 2R < r:
a) For what range of energies are bound states allowed?
b) Do the eigenfunctions for this problem have parity proper-
ties? If so, sketch the shape of an eigenfunction pertinent to this potential
with even parity and sketch an eigenfunction shape with odd parity.
c) Consider a beam of particles launched from R = 1 with
energy E > 0. For what range of energies E is the re
ection coecient R = 1?
Explanation / Answer
a) E<25
b) even - cos(r/R)
odd - sin(r/r)
c) what do you mean by reaction coefficient, there are many meanings of that term
