Question

Describe two independent mechanisms though which the originally degenerate energy levels of the n = 2 level of the H atom can be split into separate energy levels without the presence of an externally applied magnetic field. Provide order of magnitude estimates for the energy difference between the now split energy levels and compare to the order of magnitude of the energy spacing between electrons possessing a different quantum number n.
