The Stark effect in the Bohr-Sommerfeld theory and in Schrödinger's wave mechanics
Anthony Duncan, Michel Janssen
The explanation of the first-order Stark effect in hydrogen by Epstein and Schwarzschild in 1916 was seen as a great success for the old quantum theory. Yet, it also revealed some…

The trouble with orbits: the Stark effect in the old and the new quantum theory
Anthony Duncan, Michel Janssen
The old quantum theory and Schrödinger's wave mechanics (and other forms of quantum mechanics) give the same results for the line splittings in the first-order Stark effect in hydr…
