Exact supersymmetry in the nonrelativistic hydrogen atom

Abstract: We consider a Pauli particle in a Coulomb field. The supersymmetric Hamiltonian is constructed, by explicitly giving the two supercharges Q 1 and Q 2 in the full three-dimensional space and which together with the Hamiltonian, are shown to constitute an S(2) superalgebra. This offers an alternative way of grouping the energy eigenstates into irreducible representations of this symmetry group of the Hamiltonian.

“…Because of the significant analytical and computational ramifications, and motivated by the future study of more complex electronic systems, we here apply our multi-dimensional generalization of SUSY-QM to the hydrogen atom in full three-dimensional detail. This is of interest because, until now, the standard application of SUSY-QM to the hydrogen atom required that we first separate out the angular degrees of freedom -effectively reducing the problem to a one-dimensional treatment [Kirchberg et al (2003); Lahiri et al (1987); Tangerman & Tjon (1993)]. With our vector superpotential approach, one can deal with the full three-dimensional nature of the hydrogen atom.…”

“…In addition to the above approaches, there is an independent powerful approach i.e., potential algebra (or group theoretical) approach [35,36,37,38,39,40,44,45], by which one can obtain the exact spectrum of some of these exactly solvable potentials. Alhassid et.al.…”
