PHYS261 Autumn term 2008 page 3 The story you should learn to perform: (three slides follow in the ODP file ) The two electron atoms have the spin symmetry feature. You can make the total wavefunction antisymmetric by taking symmetric spin and space function antisymmetric. Or you can take antisymmetric spin and then this aplies space function is symmetric. Symmetric spins are called triplet, because there are 3 of them, antisymmetric is a singlet. Two electrons repel each other. The repulsion adds energy, positive potential. We will explain HOW to see that the repulsion is larger for singlets than for corresponding triplet. So HERE IS THE STORY: triplet -> spin SYM -> space ASYM -> for r1->r2 Psi(antisym) is very small -> the repulsion is very small. singlet -> spin ASYM -> space SYM -> for r1->r2 Psi(sym) is BIG, the repulsion is BIG, Think e.g. about 1s 2p orbitals, as states a and b. Then schematically Psi(antisym) -> a(1) b(2) – b(1) a(2) Psi(sym) -> a(1) b(2) + b(1) a(2) when the repulsion is greatest? It is when r1->r2 - and then Psi(sym) is BIG, Psi(antisym) is very small...
