Homework Statement
Find the ground state energy of a particle restricted to move in one dimension subject to the potential in the attachement using perturbation theory.
Homework Equations
Yo = (2/a)1/2 sin(nπx/a)
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm not sure how to account for the potential since there are two wells.
My setup right now using braket notation is E = 2<Y|Y> + <Y|Vo|Y> where Y is the wavefunction Yo = (2/a)1/2 sin(nπx/a)
Can I get some feedback as to if I am headed in the right direction or how to get there if I am not?
Thank you.
