Schrödinger’s quantum mechanics is a legacy of Hamiltonian’s classical mechanics. But Hamiltonian mechanics was developed from an empty space paradigm, for which Schrödinger’s equation is a timeless (t = 0) or time-independent deterministic equation, which includes his fundamental principle of superposition. When one is dealing Schrödinger equation, it is unavoidable not to mention about Schrödinger ‘s cat. Which is one of the most elusive cats in modern science since disclosed the half-life cat hypothesis in 1935. The cat is alive or not had been debated by score of world renounced scientists it is still debating. Yet I will show Schrödinger ‘s hypothesis is not a physically realizable hypothesis, for which it has nothing for us to debate about. But quantum communication and computing rely on qubit information algorithm, I will show that qubit information logic is as elusive as Schrödinger’s cat. It exists only within an empty space, but not exists within our temporal (t > 0) universe. Since there is always a price to pay within our universe, I will show that every physical subspace needs a section of time ∆t and an amount of energy ∆E to create and it is not free. Although, double slit hypothesis had been fictitiously confirmed that superposition principle exists, but I will show that double-slit postulation is another non-physically realizable hypothesis that had let us to believing superposition principle is actually existed within our time–space. Yet one of the worst coverup must be particles behaved differently within a micro space to justify the spooky superposition principle, which is one of greatest quantum conspiracy in modern science. Nevertheless, the art of quantum mechanics is all about a physically realizable equation, we see that everything existed within our universe, no matter how small it is, it has to be temporal (t > 0) which includes all the laws, principles, and equations. Otherwise, it is virtual as mathematics is since Schrodinger equation is mathematics, but mathematics is not equaled to science. Finally, when science turns to virtual reality for solution it is not a reliable answer. But when science turns to physical reality for an answer it is a reliable solution.

In this chapter, the Schrödinger equation is “derived” for particles that can be described by de Broglie waves. The Schrödinger equation is very different from the corresponding equation of motion in classical mechanics. In order to illustrate the fundamental differences between the two theories, one of the simplest problems of particle dynamics is solved in both Newtonian and quantum mechanics. This simple example also helps to show that quantum mechanics is the fundamental theory and classical mechanics is an approximation, a remarkably good approximation, when considering macroscopic objects. The solution of the Schrödinger equation is presented for a particle inside a box and the quantization condition is derived. The amazing possibility of quantum tunneling when a particle is incident on a barrier of height larger than the energy of the incident particle is also discussed. Finally the three-dimensional Schrödinger equation is solved for the hydrogen atom.

The degeneracy associated with dynamical symmetry of a potential can be identified in quantum mechanics, by solving the Schrödinger equation analytically, using the method of separation of variables in at least two different coordinate systems, and in classical mechanics by solving the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. In the present pedagogical article, the notion of separability and superintegrability of a potential, with profound implications is discussed. In an earlier tutorial paper, we had addressed the n<sup>2</sup>-fold degeneracy of the hydrogen atom using the Casimir operators corresponding to the SO(4) symmetry of the 1/r potential. The present paper is a sequel to it, in which we solve the Schrödinger equation for the hydrogen atom using separation of variables in the parabolic coordinate systems. In doing so, we take the opportunity to revisit some excellent classical works on symmetry and degeneracy in classical and quantum physics, if only to draw attention to these insightful studies which unfortunately miss even a mention in most undergraduate and even graduate level courses in quantum mechanics and atomic physics.

The wave function and energy spectra were used to describe the characteristic of sub-atomic particle. By using hypergeometry method, we obtained the approximate analytical solutions of the radial Schrödinger equation based on the concept of minimal length formalism for the modified Coulomb potential.

Quantum mechanics is a hugely important topic in science and engineering, but many students struggle to understand the abstract mathematical techniques used to solve the Schrödinger equation and to analyze the resulting wave functions. Retaining the popular approach used in Fleisch's other Student's Guides, this friendly resource uses plain language to provide detailed explanations of the fundamental concepts and mathematical techniques underlying the Schrödinger equation in quantum mechanics. It addresses in a clear and intuitive way the problems students find most troublesome. Each chapter includes several homework problems with fully worked solutions. A companion website hosts additional resources, including a helpful glossary, Matlab code for creating key simulations, revision quizzes and a series of videos in which the author explains the most important concepts from each section of the book.

The harmonic oscillator is a quantum mechanical system that represents one of the most basic potentials. In order to understand the behavior of a particle within this system, the time-independent Schrödinger equation was solved; in other words, its eigenfunctions and eigenvalues were found. The first goal of this study was to construct a family of single parameter potentials and corresponding eigenfunctions with a spectrum similar to that of the harmonic oscillator. This task was achieved by means of supersymmetric quantum mechanics, which utilizes an intertwining operator that relates a known Hamiltonian with another whose potential is to be built. Secondly, a generalization of the technique was used to work with the time-dependent Schrödinger equation to construct new potentials and corresponding solutions.

The generalized Woods–Saxon potential plus repulsive Coulomb interaction is considered in this work. The supersymmetry quantum mechanics method is used to get the energy spectrum of Schrodinger equation and also the Nikiforov–Uvarov approach is employed to solve analytically the Schrodinger equation in the framework of quantum mechanics. The potentials with centrifugal term include both exponential and radial terms, hence, the Pekeris approximation is considered to approximate the radial terms. By using the step-by-step Nikiforov–Uvarov method, the energy eigenvalue and wave function are obtained analytically. After that, the spectrum of energy is obtained by the supersymmetry quantum mechanics method. The energy eigenvalues obtained from each method are the same. Then in special cases, the results are compared with former result and a full agreement is observed. In the [Formula: see text]-state, the standard Woods–Saxon potential has no bound state, but with Coulomb repulsive interaction, it may have bound state for zero angular momentum.
