Question:

Consider the first-order correction to the energy of interacting spins illustrated in Example Problem 28.3 for ψ2. Calculate the energy correction to the wave functions ψ1 = α(1) α(2), ψ2 = β(1) α(2), and ψ4 = β(1) β(2). Show that your results are consistent with ΔE = m1m2h J12 with m1 and m2 = +1/2 for α and – 1/2 for β.
