Abstract:
The Klein-Gordon
equation with
Varshni
potential was
solved through
the
Nikiforov-Uvarov
method. The
Greene and
Aldrich
approximation
schemes were
employed to
overcome the
centrifugal
barrier. The
energy
eigenvalues were
obtained in
relativistic and
non-relativistic
regimes, as well
as the
corresponding
normalized wave
functions.
Energy spectra
and expectation
values of the
square of
inverse of
position kinetic
energy
and
the square of
the momentum
for
five selected
diatomic
molecules: H2,
HCl, TiH, I2
and CO, using
their separate
spectroscopic
parameters were
computed through
Hellmann-Feynman
Theorem.
Bound-state
energy
eigenvalues were
also computed
for Varshni
potential and
the numerical
results agree
with the already
existing
literature.
Keywords:
Expectation
values, Varshni
potential,
Nikiforov-Uvarov
method,
Klein-Gordon
equation.
