Characteristics of a Two-Dimensional Hydrogen-like Atom

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

Using the customary and well-known representation of the radiation probability of a hydrogen-like atom in the three-dimensional case, a general expression for the probability of single-photon emission of a twodimensional atom has been obtained along with an expression for the particular case of the transition from the first excited state to the ground state, in the latter case in comparison with corresponding expressions for the three-dimensional atom and the one-dimensional atom. Arguments are presented in support of the claim that this method of calculation gives a value of the probability that is identical to the value given by exact methods of QED extended to the subspace {0, 1, 2}. Relativistic corrections ~ (Zα)4 to the usual Schrödinger value of the energy (~ (Zα)2) are also discussed.
