Abstract

The ways for improving on techniques for finding new solvable potentials based on supersymmetry and shape invariance has been discussed by Morales et al. [1] In doing so they address the peculiar system known as the one-dimensional hydrogen atom. In this paper we show that their remarks on such problem are mistaken. We do this by explicitly constructing both the one-dimensional Coulomb potential and the superpotential associated with the problem, objects whose existence are denied in the mentioned paper.

Summary

Introduction

A paper of Morales et al [1] has discussed the use of supersymmetric and shape invariance techniques and of Darboux and intertwining transformations, for building new solvable potentials. We do this by explicitly constructing both the one-dimensional Coulomb potential and the superpotential associated with the problem, objects whose existence are denied in the mentioned paper. To illustrate these ideas they apply them to hydrogen-like potentials and to radial and one-dimensional problems.
