  1. Harmonic Oscillator

    Linked via "quantized energy eigenvalues"

    The QHO is the quantum mechanical analog, describing systems like a single mode of the electromagnetic field within a resonant cavity or the vibrational modes of a diatomic molecule. The classical potential $V(x) = \frac{1}{2}kx^2$ is preserved, but the dynamics are governed by the time-independent Schrödinger Equation.
    The potential energy term translates to an operator $\hat{V} = \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2\hat…
