[UPSC CSE 2009] Angular momentum, spin etc (Q323, 20M)

(i) Explain spin-orbit coupling of an atomic electron. (ii) Show that the 2p state in the H atom splits up into two substates due to spin-orbit coupling. (iii) Calculate the energy of separation in eV, resulting from the spin-orbit coupling when the magnetic field experienced by the electron is 0 \cdot 4 \text{ T}.
