Solution of the Schrodinger Equation for the Hydrogen Atom using a Modular Analogue Computing System
Peer reviewedSummers, M. K. – Physics Education, 1975
Descriptors: Atomic Structure, College Science, Computer Assisted Instruction, Energy
Peer reviewedSummers, M. K. – Physics Education, 1978
Defines all recurrence relations used in the Nuffield course, to solve first- and second-order differential equations, and describes a typical algorithm for computer generation of solutions. (Author/GA)
Descriptors: Algorithms, Atomic Theory, College Science, Computer Oriented Programs
Peer reviewedSummers, M. K. – Physics Education, 1978
Describes how to implement numerical integration on a pocket calculator to solve two kinds of differential equations important in physics. The two equations are those defining simple harmonic and quantum harmonic motion. The half-increment method is used for this purpose. (GA)

Peer reviewedSummers, M. K. – Physics Education, 1977
Describes how first- and second-order differential equations applied to the Schrodinger equation can be used to obtain the wavefunctions of the quantum harmonic oscillator. (SL)
Descriptors: College Science, Compulsory Education, Higher Education, Instruction
Peer reviewedSummers, M. K. – Physics Education, 1976
Discusses the analog simulation of several quantum mechanical problems, including the Schrodinger equation and the de Broglie relation. (MLH)

A Simple Microprocessor Breadboard System for Use in Microelectronics or Computer Education--Part 2.
Peer reviewedSummers, M. K. – Physics Education, 1982
Provides instructions for programming a system described in a previous article in this journal. Lists three programs: (1) a check that the system is functioning correctly; (2) a monitor program; and (3) a program which adds hex numbers from 00 to 0F and stores the result in memory location 20. (SK)
