Particle in a spherically symmetric potential

An important kind of problem in quantum mechanics is that of a particle in a spherically symmetric potential, i.e., a potential that depends only on the distance between the particle and a defined center point. In particular, if the particle in question is an electron and the potential is derived from Coulomb's law, then the problem can be used to describe a hydrogen-like (one-electron) atom (or ion).
In the general case, the dynamics of a particle in a spherically symmetric potential are governed by a Hamiltonian of the following form:
:\hat = \frac + V(r)
where m_0 is the mass of the particle, \hat is the momentum operator, and the potential V(r) depends only on r, the modulus of the radius vector r. The quantum mechanical wavefunctions and energies (eigenvalues) are found by solving the Schrödinger equation with this Hamiltonian. Due to the spherical symmetry of the system, it is natural to use spherical coordinates r, \theta and \phi. When this is done, the time-independent Schrödinger equation for the system is separable, allowing the angular problems to be dealt with easily, and leaving an ordinary differential equation in r to determine the energies for the particular potential V(r) under discussion.
== Structure of the eigenfunctions ==

The eigenstates of the system have the form
:\psi(r, \theta, \phi) = R(r)\Theta(\theta)\Phi(\phi) \,\;
in which the spherical polar angles θ and φ represent the colatitude and azimuthal angle, respectively. The last two factors of ψ are often grouped together as spherical harmonics, so that the eigenfunctions take the form
:\psi(r, \theta, \phi) = R(r)Y_(\theta,\phi).\,
The differential equation which characterizes the function R(r) \,\; is called the radial equation.
