Physics · Quantum Mechanics
The ground state eigenfunction for the potential V(x) = -δ(x), where δ(x) is the Dirac delta function, is given by ψ(x) = A e-α|x|, where A and α > 0 are constants. If a perturbation H' = bx4 is applied, the first-order correction to the energy of the ground state will be:
- 16bα4
- 23bα4
- 33b2α4✓
- 4bα4
Correct answer
3b2α4
