In atomic physics, the total angular momentum is obtained by combining its orbital and spin angular momentum. Assume the case of a hydrogen atom with principal quantum number n = 2 and orbital quantum number l = 1. What should be the energy difference between the two possible values j = 1/2 and j = 3/2?
