Interacting particles in two dimensions: numerical solution of the four-dimensional Schrödinger equation in a hypercube
Andras Vanyolos,
Gabor Varga
Abstract:We study numerically the Coulomb interacting two-particle stationary states of the Schrödinger equation, where the particles are confined in a two-dimensional infinite square well. Inside the domain the particles are subjected to a steeply increasing isotropic harmonic potential, resembling that in a nucleus. For these circumstances we have developed a fully discretized finite difference method of the Numerov-type that approximates the four-dimensional Laplace operator, and thus the whole Schrödinger equation,… Show more
