3. A hydrogen atom is in the energy level of E=-Eo/9, where Eo=13.6 eV is the atomic ground state energy. Suppose its orbital angular momentum along the z-axis is measured to be (h-bar). (a) Write down all possible l nlm ? states that the hydrogen atom can have immediately after the orbital angular momentum measurement. (b) Right after the orbital angular momentum measurement in (a), you measure the total angular momentum (orbital angular momentum + spin) of the electron along the z-axis. Write down all possible total angular momentum eigenstates that the measurement yields.
