Fitting for the energy levels of hydrogen
David M. Jacobs, Marko Horbatsch
Atomic hydrogen energy levels calculated to high precision are required to assist experimental researchers working on spectroscopy in the pursuit of testing quantum electrodynamics…
Relativistic Ritz approach to hydrogen-like atoms II: spectral analysis of hydrogen and deuterium
David M. Jacobs
A long-distance effective theory of hydrogen-like atoms, dubbed the relativistic Ritz approach was recently introduced and some its theoretical consequences were explored. In this…
Relativistic Ritz approach to hydrogen-like atoms I: theoretical considerations
David M. Jacobs
The Rydberg formula along with the Ritz quantum defect ansatz has been a standard theoretical tool used in atomic physics since before the advent of quantum mechanics, yet this app…
Non-relativistic Effective Quantum Mechanics of the Coulomb Interaction
David M. Jacobs, Matthew Jankowski
We apply the ideas of effective field theory to nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. Utilizing an artificial boundary of ignorance as a calculational tool, we develop the effective t…
