Pauli exclusion principle In any atom no two electrons can have all four quantum numbers the same. See exclusion principle. 

The corresponding fiinctions i-, Xj etc. then define what are known as the normal coordinates of vibration, and the Hamiltonian can be written in tenns of these in precisely the fonn given by equation (AT 1.69). witli the caveat that each tenn refers not to the coordinates of a single particle, but rather to independent coordinates that involve the collective motion of many particles. An additional distinction is that treatment of the vibrational problem does not involve the complications of antisymmetry associated with identical fennions and the Pauli exclusion prmciple. Products of the nonnal coordinate fiinctions neveitlieless describe all vibrational states of the molecule (both ground and excited) in very much the same way that the product states of single-electron fiinctions describe the electronic states, although it must be emphasized that one model is based on independent motion and the other on collective motion, which are qualitatively very different. Neither model faithfully represents reality, but each serves as an extremely usefiil conceptual model and a basis for more accurate calculations. 

The Hartree approximation is usefid as an illustrative tool, but it is not a very accurate approximation. A significant deficiency of the Hartree wavefiinction is that it does not reflect the anti-synnnetric nature of the electrons as required by the Pauli principle [7], Moreover, the Hartree equation is difficult to solve. The Hamiltonian is orbitally dependent because the siumnation in equation Al.3.11 does not include the th orbital. This means that if there are M electrons, then M Hamiltonians must be considered and equation A1.3.11 solved for each orbital. 

Semiconductors are poor conductors of electricity at low temperatures. Since the valence band is completely occupied, an applied electric field caimot change the total momentum of the valence electrons. This is a reflection of the Pauli principle. This would not be true for an electron that is excited into the conduction band. However, for a band gap of 1 eV or more, few electrons can be themially excited into the conduction band at ambient temperatures. Conversely, the electronic properties of semiconductors at ambient temperatures can be profoundly altered by the... 

The resolution of this issue is based on the application of the Pauli exclusion principle and Femii-Dirac statistics. From the free electron model, the total electronic energy, U, can be written as... 

The state F) is such that the particle states a, b, c,..., q are occupied and each particle is equally likely to be in any one of the particle states. However, if two of the particle states a, b, c,...,q are the same then F) vanishes it does not correspond to an allowed state of the assembly. This is a characteristic of antisynmietric states and it is called the Pauli exclusion principle no two identical fennions can be in the same particle state. The general fimction for an assembly of bosons is... 

The strategy for representing this differential equation geometrically is to expand both H and p in tenns of the tln-ee Pauli spin matrices, 02 and and then view the coefficients of these matrices as time-dependent vectors in three-dimensional space. We begin by writing die the two-level system Hamiltonian in the following general fomi. 

We now define the tliree-dimensional vectors, Kand fl, consisting of the coefficients of the Pauli matrices in the expansion of p and//, respectively ... 

The sum over n. can now be perfonned, but this depends on the statistics that the particles in the ideal gas obey. Fenni particles obey the Pauli exclusion principle, which allows only two possible values n. = 0, 1. For Bose particles, n. can be any integer between zero and infinity. Thus the grand partition fiinction is...

Themiodynamic stability requires a repulsive core m the interatomic potential of atoms and molecules, which is a manifestation of the Pauli exclusion principle operating at short distances. This means that the Coulomb and dipole interaction potentials between charged and uncharged real atoms or molecules must be supplemented by a hard core or other repulsive interactions. Examples are as follows. 

Generalized first-order kinetics have been extensively reviewed in relation to teclmical chemical applications [59] and have been discussed in the context of copolymerization [53]. From a theoretical point of view, the general class of coupled kinetic equation (A3.4.138) and equation (A3.4.139) is important, because it allows for a general closed-fomi solution (in matrix fomi) [49]. Important applications include the Pauli master equation for statistical mechanical systems (in particular gas-phase statistical mechanical kinetics) [48] and the investigation of certain simple reaction systems [49, ]. It is the basis of the many-level treatment of...

A further preliminary statement to this section would be that, somewhat analogously to classical physics or mechanics where positions and momenta (or velocities) are the two conjugate variables that determine the motion, moduli and phases play similar roles. But the analogy is not perfect. Indeed, early on it was questioned, apparently first by Pauli [104], whether a wave function can be constructed from the knowledge of a set of moduli alone. It was then argued by Lamb [105] that from a set of values of wave function moduli and of their rates...

Stabilizing resonances also occur in other systems. Some well-known ones are the allyl radical and square cyclobutadiene. It has been shown that in these cases, the ground-state wave function is constructed from the out-of-phase combination of the two components [24,30]. In Section HI, it is shown that this is also a necessary result of Pauli s principle and the permutational symmetry of the polyelectronic wave function When the number of electron pairs exchanged in a two-state system is even, the ground state is the out-of-phase combination [28]. Three electrons may be considered as two electron pairs, one of which is half-populated. When both electron pahs are fully populated, an antiaromatic system arises ("Section HI).
