High probability of transitions in the H-I spectrum and 3D-atomic orbitals geometry

In the framework of the quantum model for hydrogen atom, we use the wave functions provided by the solutions of the Schrödinger equation with Coulomb potential. Considering the radial and angular densities of the localization probability, we identify the representative quantum states that play a high-probability role in transitions for H-I spectra. Besides that, we obtain some other complementary results. So, we present the numerical tables for the radial distributions, the electron density functions and some observables like θ nodal angles, nodal surfaces, along with the ordered sequences of the average radii in the sub-shells associated with this n: ⟨r⟩4f = 18a0 < ⟨r⟩4d = 21a0 < ⟨r⟩4p = 23a0 < ⟨r⟩4s = 24a0 (a0 - the first Bohr radius). Further, we have added the significant scientific 3D-visualization of the orbitals shapes and describe them via the nodal values for θ angles.

Abstract

In the framework of the quantum model for hydrogen atom, we use the wave functions provided by the solutions of the Schrödinger equation with Coulomb potential. Considering the radial and angular densities of the localization probability, we identify the representative quantum states that play a high-probability role in transitions for H-I spectra. Besides that, we obtain some other complementary results. So, we present the numerical tables for the radial distributions, the electron density functions and some observables like θ nodal angles, nodal surfaces, along with the ordered sequences of the average radii in the sub-shells associated with this n: ⟨r⟩4f = 18a0 < ⟨r⟩4d = 21a0 < ⟨r⟩4p = 23a0 < ⟨r⟩4s = 24a0 (a0 - the first Bohr radius). Further, we have added the significant scientific 3D-visualization of the orbitals shapes and describe them via the nodal values for θ angles.
