- Correspondence Principle
- … as a selection rule in the old quantum theory (1913); in modern quantum mechanics, it is a consequence of the WKB approximation. The hydrogen atom's quantum description reduces to a classical Kepler orbit for highly excited states—a regime called Rydberg atoms—exactly as the correspondence principle requires.
This sourceUndergraduate text covering the correspondence principle and Rydberg atoms; supports the inline Rydberg-atom statement in the formal example (n→∞ recovery of classical Kepler orbits).
