Comparing observed and theoretical potential energy curves for natural and exotic neutral 4-unit charge Coulomb systems like HH and HantiH leads to new conclusions on the effect of charge-antisymmetry in nature. With singularities in the…
Recently, we showed that that band as well as line spectra, reveal a left-right symmetry in 4- and 2-fermion systems. We now show how a mass-conjugation explains the difference between atom- and antiatom-states in a stable 2-unit charge…
Modern ab initio treatments of H-Hbar systems are inconsistent with the logic behind algebraic Hamiltonians H(+-)=H(0)+/-deltaH for charge-symmetrical and charge-asymmetrical 4 unit charge systems like H(2) and HHbar. Since these 2…
In the framework of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics we derive a necessary condition for four Coulomb charges $(m_{1}^+, m_{2}^-, m_{3}^+, m_{4}^-)$, where all masses are assumed finite, to form the stable system. The obtained stability…
Quantum mechanics (QM) theoretically forbids natural H-antiH interactions because of annihilation in the Dirac sense. But in practice, ab initio QM relies explicitly on HantiH attraction, which it theoretically forbids, to arrive at…
Detecting H-antiH oscillations is intimately connected with the existence of natural antiH. We detect natural H-antiH oscillations, generated by a classical spin-free Coulomb quantum gap, which we calculate analytically without any…
We show that Coulomb's law is a universal molecular function. Charge inversion in one atom (handedness or chirality) generates a switch from atom-atom to atom-antiatom systems. this switch reduces the 10 term Hamiltonian for 4-particle…
Following recent work in search of a universal function (Van Hooydonk, Eur J Inorg Chem, 1999, 1617), we test symmetric potentials for reproducing molecular potential energy curves (PECs). For a bond, a four-particle system, charge…
Most physical systems, whether classical or quantum mechanical, exhibit spherical symmetry. Angular momentum, denoted as $\ell$, is a conserved quantity that appears in the centrifugal potential when a particle moves under the influence of…
The position and momentum probability densities of a multidimensional quantum system are fully characterized by means of the radial expectation values $\langle r^\alpha \rangle$ and $\left\langle p^\alpha \right\rangle$, respectively. These…
The quantum mechanics of two-electron systems is reviewed, starting with the ground state of the helium atom and helium-like ions, with central charge $Z\ge 2$. For Z=1, demonstrating the stability of the negative hydrogen ion, H$^-$,…
The hydrogen atom as relativistic bound-state system of a proton and an electron in the complex-mass scheme is investigated. Interaction of a proton and an electron in the atom is described by the Lorentz-scalar Coulomb potential; the…
CERN announced in January 1996 the detection of the first eleven atoms of antimatter ever produced. The experiment was based on a method proposed earlier by S. Brodsky, C. Munger and I. Schmidt, and which furthermore predicted exactly the…
The violation of the Noether relation between symmetries and charges is reduced to the time dependence of the charge associated to a conserved current. For the U(1) gauge symmetry a non-perturbative control of the charge commutators is…
The model under consideration is an asymmetric two-dimensional Coulomb gas of positively (q_1=+1) and negatively (q_2=-1/2) charged pointlike particles, interacting via a logarithmic potential. This continuous system is stable against…
A few-body formalism is applied for computation of two different three-charge-particle systems. The first system is a collision of a slow antiproton, $\bar{\rm{p}}$, with a positronium atom: Ps$=(e^+e^-)$ $-$ a bound state of an electron…
Molecular band spectra reveal a left-right symmetry for atoms (Van Hooydonk, Spectrochim.Acta A, 2000, 56, 2273). Intra-atomic left-right symmetry points to antiatom states and, to make sense, this must also show in line spectra. H Lyman…
The methodology based on the association of the Variational Method with Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics is used to evaluate the energy states of the confined hydrogen atom.
Coulomb repulsion between two moving electrons loses its spherical symmetry due to relativistic effects. In presence of a uniform positive ion background this asymmetry uncovers an angular dependent attraction potential in the direction of…
The hyperspherical harmonic basis is used to describe bound states in an $A$--body system. The approach presented here is based on the representation of the potential energy in terms of hyperspherical harmonic functions. Using this…
