Abstract:
We investigate a $q$-deformation of the $so(4)$ dynamical symmetry of the hydrogen atom using the theory of the quantum group $su_q(2)$. We derive the energy spectrum in a physically consistent manner and find a degeneracy breaking and also a smaller Hilbert space. We note that using the deformed Casimir as was previously done leads to inconsistencies in the physical interpretation of the theory.
Keywords:
hydrogen atom, quantum group, dynamical symmetry.
