- Abstract summary: In this work, we generalize the quantum Runge-Lenz vector to a spin-dependent one, and then extract a novel Hamiltonian of hydrogen atom with spin based on the requirement of $SO(4)$ symmetry.
Our findings extend the ground of hydrogen atom, and may contribute to other complicated models based on hydrogen atom.

- Abstract: As the simplest atom in nature, the hydrogen atom has been explored thoroughly from the perspective of non-relativistic quantum mechanics to relativistic quantum mechanics. Among the research on hydrogen atom, its energy level is the most basic, which can be obtained more conveniently predicated on the $SO(4)$ symmetry than the wave-equation resolution. Moreover, ``spin'' is another indispensable topic in quantum mechanics, appearing as an intrinsic degree of freedom. In this work, we generalize the quantum Runge-Lenz vector to a spin-dependent one, and then extract a novel Hamiltonian of hydrogen atom with spin based on the requirement of $SO(4)$ symmetry. Furthermore, the energy spectrum of hydrogen atom with spin potentials is also determined by the remarkable approach of $SO(4)$ symmetry. Our findings extend the ground of hydrogen atom, and may contribute to other complicated models based on hydrogen atom.
