[Q] Hamiltonian symbol in Latex

[Arthur Crawford]

Dear all,

Does anyone out there know an easy way to get the symbol
for a Hamiltonian (as it is commonly type-set in text-books etc)
and related symbols into a latex document?

Thanks in advance,

Arthur.

For chemists and physicists the \everymath{\rm} to begin with.

Calligraphic: ${\cal H}\Psi=E\Psi$

Math Italic: ${\mit H} ~\Psi = E~\Psi$

The hamiltonian may just as well be a plain roman H: $H\Psi=E\Psi$

The calligraphic one I would think is the most easy; it'll stand
out in the running text as well.

met vriendelijke groeten, Wim van Dorst
