12. Continuing Modern Physics Ch.7: H atom in Wave mechanics Spin, Energy levels Zeeman effect Fine structure Bohr magneton J=L+S

13. H-atom wavefunctions ↔ electron probability distributions: l = angular momentum wavenumber Discussion: compare Bohr model to Schrödinger model for H atom.

14. m l denotes possible orientations of L and L z (l=2) Wave-mechanics L ≠ Bohr’s n 

16. Magnetic moments shift energies in B fields

17. Spin S and orbit L couple to total angular momentum J = L + S

18. Spin-orbit coupling: spin of e - in orbital magnetic field of p Fine-structure splitting (e.g. 21-cm line) (Interaction of nuclear spin with electron spin (in an atom) → Hyper-fine splitting)

19. Total J + external magnetic field → Zeeman effect

22. History of atomic models: Thomson discovered electron, invented plum-pudding model Rutherford observed nuclear scattering, invented orbital atom Bohr quantized angular momentum, improved H atom model. Bohr model explained observed H spectra, derived E n = E/n 2 and phenomenological Rydberg constant Quantum numbers n, l, m l (Zeeman effect) Solution to Schrödinger equation shows that E n = E/l(l+1) Pauli proposed spin (m s = ±1/2), and Dirac derived it Fine-structure splitting reveals spin quantum number
