A particle in a box
(a)
The Schrodinger equation for the region where V = 0 is the same as for a free
particle, so the general solutions are given as:
k = A e i kx +B ei kx = A ( cos kx +isin kx ) + B ( cos kx +isin kx )=( A + B ) cos kx + ( AB ) isin kx

Boundary conditions
The wavefunction must be zero where V is infinite.

and

Conclusion:
The need to satisfy boundary conditions implies that only certain
wavefunctions are acceptable, and hence restricts observables to discrete
values.

jj-coupling
Russell-Saunders coupling fails when the spin-orbit coupling is large (in
heavy atoms). In that case, the individual spin and orbital momenta of the
electrons are coupled into individual j values; then these momenta are
combined into a grand total J.

The labels derived by using the Russell-Saunders scheme can be used to
label the states of the jj-coupling scheme.
