Spin-dependent Bohm trajectories for hydrogen eigenstates
arXiv:quant-ph/0308105 · doi:10.1016/S0375-9601(02)00824-1
Abstract
The Bohm trajectories for several hydrogen atom eigenstates are determined, taking into account the additional momentum term that arises from the Pauli current. Unlike the original Bohmian result, the spin-dependent term yields nonstationary trajectories. The relationship between the trajectories and the standard visualizations of orbitals is discussed. The trajectories for a model problem that simulates a 1s-2p transition in hydrogen are also examined.
