Key Equations

$$\hat{H} = \frac{\hat{p}^2}{2m} + \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2r^2$$
$$E_{n_x,n_y,n_z} = \hbar\omega\left(n_x + n_y + n_z + \frac{3}{2}\right)$$
$$g_N = \frac{(N+1)(N+2)}{2}$$
$$-\frac{\hbar^2}{2m}\frac{d^2u}{dr^2} + \left[\frac{1}{2}m\omega^2r^2 + \frac{\hbar^2\ell(\ell+1)}{2mr^2}\right]u = Eu$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
