Operator methods in quantum mechanics
an eigenstate of the momentum operator,ˆp = −i!∂x, with eigenvalue p. For a free particle, the plane wave is also an eigenstate of the Hamiltonian, Hˆ = pˆ2 2m with eigenvalue p2 2m. In quantum mechanics, for any observable A, there is an operator Aˆ which acts on the wavefunction so that, if a system is in a state described by |ψ",
