Confined Hydrogen Atom in Higher Space Dimension Under Pressure

We investigated the Schrödinger equation for the confined H-atom in an impenetrable spherical cavity in N-dimensional space. We found that the wave functions are dimension-dependent and have the same form as the wave functions of the free hydrogen atom in N- dimensions. Moreover, we investigated th...

description We investigated the Schrödinger equation for the confined H-atom in an impenetrable spherical cavity in N-dimensional space. We found that the wave functions are dimension-dependent and have the same form as the wave functions of the free hydrogen atom in N- dimensions. Moreover, we investigated the ground state energies for this case, where we found that those energies depend on the radius of the cavity (S), and the dimensionality of the space (N). On the other hand, we investigated the average pressure exerted by the confined H-atom in an impenetrable spherical cavity in N-dimensional space on the wall of the cavity. We found that the values of the pressure depends on both N, and S such as: for a given N, as the radius of the cavity decreases, the pressure increases up to a maximum value called Pmax , suddenly after which, the value of the pressure decreases to zero. The value of Pmax depends on N, where we found that it decreases as N increases. In addition to that, the value of the radius of the cavity (S) at which the pressure has its maximum value (Pmax ) increases as N increases.
