 +===Perturbation Theory===
 +What do we need in perturbation theory?  We want to find the energy:
 +<math>E=E^{(0)} + E_{r} + (E_{FS}+E_Z)</math> where <math>E^{(0)} = \frac{-13.6 \mathrm{eV}}{n^2}</math>

 Putting it all together and we get: <math>E^1_r=-\frac{E_n^2} {2mc^2}[\frac{4n} {l+\frac{1} 2} - 3]</math>  Dividing both sides by <math>E_n</math> and we get a relativistic correction of about <math>2</math>x<math>10^{-5}</math> Putting it all together and we get: <math>E^1_r=-\frac{E_n^2} {2mc^2}[\frac{4n} {l+\frac{1} 2} - 3]</math>  Dividing both sides by <math>E_n</math> and we get a relativistic correction of about <math>2</math>x<math>10^{-5}</math>
