Abstract

Using the generating function for Hermite polynomialsH n two integrals developed in computation of the bond energy of atomic nucleus have been solved. Furthermore the probability distribution of the coordinate of quantum harmonic oscillator has been derived with the aid of suitable integral representation ofH n(x). Presented computations are simpler then usually exploited recurrence equation technique.
