Modified Method of Perturbed Stationary States. II. Semiclassical and Low-Velocity Quantal Approximations.

摘要

For one-electron heteropolar systems,the wave-theoretic Lagrangian of Paper I exp 2is simplified in two distinct approximations. The first is semiclassical;the second is quantal,for velocities below those for which the semiclassical treatment is reliable. For each approximation,unitarity and detailed balancing are discussed. Then,the variational method as described by Demkov is used to determine the coupled equations for the radial functions and the Euler-Lagrange equations for the translational factors which are part of the theory. Specific semiclassical formulae for the translational factors are given in a many-state approximation. Low-velocity quantal formulae are obtained in a one-state approximation. The one-state results of both approximations agree with an earlier determination by Riley. 14references. (ERA citation 04:017304)
