Abstract

A many-body wavefunction exponential in R, where the square of R is the sum of the squares of the interparticle distances, is shown to be the solution of Schrodingers equation for a potential proportional to the reciprocal of R, for N particles. A set of translationally invariant rotational eigenstates of angular momentum is found.
