The quantum harmonic oscillator is the quantum-mechanical analog of the classical harmonic oscillator. Because an arbitrary smooth potential can usually be approximated as a harmonic potential at the vicinity of a stable equilibrium point, it is one of the most important model systems in quantum mechanics. Furthermore, it is one of the few quantum-mechanical systems for which an exact, analytical solution is known. (Wikipedia).

The Quantum Harmonic Oscillator Part 1: The Classical Harmonic Oscillator
For our third quantum problem we will visit harmonic oscillators. In a classical setting, this is like the ball on a spring we examined when learning about Hooke's law in the classical physics series. But this has quantum application as well, in modeling the vibrations of molecules and thi
