Abstract

In this paper, Stieltjes electrostatic model and quantum Hamilton Jacobi formalism is analogous to each other is shown. This analogy allows, the bound state problem to mimics as nn unit moving imaginary charges ii\hbar, which are placed in between the two fixed imaginary charges arising due to the classical turning points of the potential. The interaction potential between nn unit moving imaginary charges ii\hbar is given by logarithm of the wave function. For an exactly solvable potential, this system attains stable equilibrium position at the zeros of the orthogonal polynomials depending upon the interval of the classical turning points.
