Feynman kernel analytical solutions for the deformed hyperbolic barrier potential with application to some diatomic molecules

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we derive the ℓ-states energy spectrum of the q-deformed hyperbolic Barrier Potential. Within the Feynman path integral formalism, we propose an appropriate approximation of the centrifugal term. Then, using Euler angles and the isomorphism between Λ3 and SU(1, 1), we convert the radial path integral into a maniable one. The obtained eigenvalues are in very good agreement with the numerical results. In addition, we applied our results to some diatomic molecules and obtained accurate results compared to the experimental (RKR) values.
