curprev 20:1220:12, 30 November 2022 35.40.123.60 talk 13,017 bytes −2 The corresponding state would be the ground state, which is an energy eigenstate, meaning it is an eigenstate of the Hamiltonian (H). E_0 is a number, and H is an operator. Quantum states are not eigenstates of numbers, but they are eigenstates of operators. undo
