TORRES DEL CASTILLO, G.F  and  NAVARRO MORALES, E. Bound states of the hydrogen atom in parabolic coordinates. Rev. mex. fis. [online]. 2008, vol.54, n.6, pp.454-458. ISSN 0035-001X.

The spectrum and separable eigenfunctions in parabolic coordinates for the bound states of the hydrogen atom, as well as their relation with the separable eigenfunctions in spherical coordinates, are obtained making use of the elementary theory of angular momentum.

Keywords : Hydrogen atom; parabolic coordinates; angular momentum.
