Lecture 12. Atomic structure Atomic structure : background Our studies of hydrogen-like atoms revealed that the spectrum of the Hamiltonian, p 2 1 Ze 2. H 0 = . 2m 4 "0 r is characterized by large n2 -fold degeneracy. However, although the non-relativistic Schro dinger Hamiltonian provides a useful platform, the formulation is a little too na ve. The Hamiltonian is subject to several classes of corrections , which lead to important physical ramifications (which reach beyond the realm of Atomic physics). In this Lecture , we outline these effects, before moving on to discuss multi-electron atoms in the next.
