Quiz 1

This document contains 7 multiple choice questions about atomic structure and spectroscopy. 1. The document asks the reader to estimate the magnitude of the magnetic field acting on an electron in hydrogen given its magnetic potential energy. 2. It asks about the conditions under which L-S and J-J coupling occur in multi-electron atoms and the interaction energies that lead to splitting under each coupling scheme. 3. It asks about the interactions that are considered and neglected in Hartree's first approximation theory for multi-electron atoms from the perspective of a typical electron.
