Problem2 Two possible wave functions for two spin 1 /2 particles with Sz = 0 are Apply the operator S+ to both states as many times as needed to find the largest possible value for m and hence det...
2. Addition of Angular Momentum a) (8pts) Given two spin 1/2 particles, what are the four possibilities for their spin configuration? Put your answer in terms of states such as | 11). where the first arrow denotes the z-component of the particle's spin. Identify the m values for each state. b)(7pts) If you apply the lowering operator to a state you get Apply the two-state lowering operator S--S(,) +S(), where sti) acts on the first state and S acts on...

[ 2 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 3 = 12 marks ] Question 5 (a) Briefly explain why we cannot find simultaneous eigenfunctions of Lt, L, and Lz. An electron in a hydrogen atom is in the n = 2 state. Ignoring spin, write down the list of possible quantum numbers {n, l, m} (b) For two qubits briefly explain, giving examples, the difference between a product state and an entangled state (c) Consider a system of identical...
10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
