Hydrogen-like Atom Simulation
Toy radial probability and shell scaling with n and Z
Hydrogen-like orbitals scale with principal quantum number n and nuclear charge Z. The radial probability peak shifts with both parameters.
What Is Hydrogen-like Atom?
Hydrogen-like Atom refers to toy radial probability and shell scaling with n and z in quantum mechanics. This page visualizes the phenomenon with interactive controls so you can change parameters and observe how the model responds.
What To Observe
- Watch how the visual pattern or system response changes as you adjust the controls for Hydrogen-like Atom.
- Relate each visual change to the core phenomenon shown here: toy radial probability and shell scaling with n and z.
- Use repeated runs with one parameter changed at a time to build intuition.
