## Abstract We calculate the ground‐state energy and other physical properties of the hydrogen atom inside a spherical box with an impenetrable wall. We apply the variational method and show that the total, kinetic, and potential energies for the moving nucleus model are greater than those for the

A recently proposed approach to the photoionization of atoms according to a formalism based on the use of time-dependent correlation functions is investigated in terms of a possible implementation of the procedure via a time-dependent variational principle. A simple application to the hydrogen atom
A hydrogen atom in a uniform magnetic field of 5 T is treated in a fully quantum mechanical manner. This is done by diagonalising the Hamiltonian for the system in a basis of Sturmian functions. Details of these calculations on the CRAY-1 are presented and results for energy levels and oscillator st
