Abstract: | In a uniformly charged prolate spheroidal Thomson hydrogen atom the electron states have been investigated. It has been shown from the mathematical point of view that the problem is equivalent to a spheroidal hydrogen atom in a parabolic potential with the cylindrical symmetry. In the framework of adiabatic approximation, the energy of ground state has been calculated. Comparison with the case of uncharged spheroidal quantum dot has been made, and the analytical form of wave function of electron has been also obtained. |
