WHEN we solve the Schrödinger equation, we<br />
always obtain two things:<br />
1. a set of eigenstate energies, En.<br />
A small aside about the Rydberg constant R:<br />
1.097 x 10 7 m -1 in SI units<br />
Atkins eliminates c from the definition of R, and ends<br />
up defining it in units of s -1 or Hz.<br />
R(Atkins) = Rc = (1.097 x 10 7 m -1 )x(2.997 x 10 8 m s -1 )<br />
= 3.288 x 10 15 Hz. Oh well.
