Problem 4 Imagine that a pion π-is captured by a deuteron nucleus fron a p-orbit with spin 1 eventually converted to two neutrons through strong interaction. (a) What are the possible values of the orbital angular momentum for the neutron pair? (b) Show that the neutron should be in a spin singlet state. (c) Repeat part (a) and (b) if the deuteron is in s-state with spin 1. Hint: The parity of the deutcron is +1. Assumc that the pion...
Question 1 (8 marks in total) The deuteron is a bound state of a proton and a neutron. Treating nucleons as identical particles with spin and isospin degrees of freedom, the total state of the deuteron can be writ- ten space Ψ spin Ψ isospin. The deuteron has a total angular momentum quantum number J - 1 and a total spin S -1. Our goal is to determine the parity of the deuteron Q1-1 (1 mark) Show that the possible...

For triplets, the This is a 1812s1 "space" wavefunctions are used to enforce the antisymmetry triplet state property. For example, the proper antisymmetric wavefunction for a 2s'1s1 spinup-spinup configuration is: (1.2) - 92s(r.)41s(2) – 42s (r2)4s(r)) 2)915}a(1)a(2) V2 2px 2py 2pz a.

Consider a particle in a 1-d well with potential V(x) =-U for-d < x < d, and V(z) 0 elsewhere. We will use the variational wave function v(z) = A(b + r), t(x)-A(b-x), -b < r < 0, 0 < x < b, to show that a bound state exists for any U0. a) Normalize the wave function. Find the expectation values of the kinetic and potential energies b) Show that for sufficiently large b, with b> d, the expectation...
Tl 6. (4 pts) We calculated Ahf for the ground state Hydrogen atom, but now let us consider Hht for the ground state of the deuterium atom. The basic idea is the same: Here the matrix representation of S is the same, since it represents the spin operator for the spin- electron, but that of 7 is different because the deuteron is a spin-1 particle (neutron+proton) whose spin has 3 possible values for the magnetic quantum number. Also, we must...
