Continue reading Chapter 5 in Jackson .
- In class we "derived" the electron-nucleus hyperfine interaction.
Evaluate the expectation value of this interaction for two different cases for
an electron in an eigenstate of hydrogen atom with quantum numbers
nlmms with n=2, l=0, m=0, ms=1/2 and
with n=2, l=1, m=0, ms=1/2. In both cases assume that
the proton spin is mps=1/2
Note that this problem will also earn credit for PHY 742.
