The Gronwall form of the Schrodinger Equation for Helium

The 1937 paper of Gronwall which concerns an alternative form for the Schrodinger Equation of the 2-electron Helium problem is re-derived in a (hopefully) transparent (possibly pedestrian) manner.

Guessing Solutions to the H-atom Schrodinger Equation

In teaching elementary quantum chemistry, the concept of eigenfunctionality is explored using the H-atom's Hamiltonian and various guessed functions. This is done in Cartesian coordinates, in Spherical Polar coordinates, and in Confocal Elliptical coordinates.

Laguerre Polynomials, an Introduction

The radial part of the Schrodinger Equation for the H-atom's electron involves Laguerre polynomials, hence this introduction.
