Coherent states for the hydrogen atom

Quantum Physics 2009-11-06 v3

Abstract

We construct a system of coherent states for the hydrogen atom that is expressed in terms of elementary functions. Unlike to the previous attempts in this direction, this system possesses the properties equivalent to the most of those for the harmonic oscillator, with modifications due to the character of the problem.
