ANALYTICAL SOLUTION OF SCHRÖDINGER EQUATION FOR YUKAWA POTENTIAL WITH VARIABLE MASS IN TOROIDAL COORDINATE USING SUPERSYMMETRIC QUANTUM MECHANICS

Abstract

Schrodinger equation on a toroidal coordinate was proposed in theoretical physics to get the information and the behavior of the system of particle. It was solved just recently in case of a charged scalar particle interacting with a uniform magnetic field, a uniform electric field, and a neutral charge constrained to the surface. The methodology used in the referred work was to solve the Schrodinger equation using an approach outlined in the Whittaker-Watson treatise, which deals with an infinite-dimensional eigenvalue problem and specific particular values of the applied field for eigenfunction problem. In contrast, in the quantum mechanical problem, one had an infinite-dimensional generalized eigenvalue problem. This study aimed to obtain the non-relativistic energy eigenvalue and the radial wave function of the Schrodinger equation under the influence of Yukawa potential. The Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics (SUSY QM) method was used as a basis to tackle the primary objective of this paper to study the problem of a particle with variable mass in toroidal coordinate. The proper super potential was used to deal with the hyperbolic form of effective potential, and the energy spectra were calculated for different quantum numbers, potential depth, and potential parameters. The radial wave function equation for ground and excited state were obtained. The results showed that the increasing value of the quantum numbers caused the energy spectra of the system to increase to the highest value when the quantum number was equal to the potential parameter, which means the most effective energy value was produced, then it was decreased afterward. While the energy value did not depend on the change of the potential parameter. This property could be used to produce this equation as an application of the previous results, the Schrödinger eigenfunction was used as the starting points to solve the other equation in the same geometrical setting and potential.
