consider a particle with charge e moving under three dimensional isotropic harmonic potential l

in an electric field Find the eigen states and eigen values of the patricle

the Hamiltonian of the system is:

we seprate the Hamiltonian (H=H_{x}+H_{y}+H_{z}) where

Notice that are identical to the Hamiltonian of the one dimensional harmonic oscillator, so we can write the wave function
