Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University / Rufus Matthew Jones, 1863-1948, was one of the most influential Quakers of the past century. As an editor, a teacher of philosophy, a founder and chairman of the American Friends Service Committee, a historian of mysticism and Quakerism, an active and dynamic leader in the Society of Friends and in Protestantism, he achieved a place of leading rank in the contemporary church and society. Studies of his thought have to date dealt only in part with his ethics. The present study therefore attempts: (1) to reconstruct his Christian ethics; (2) to seek the nature and extent of general and especially of Biblical influences; (3) to draw conclusions on the nature of his ethical position in relation to the Bible; and finally, (4) to contribute toward an evaluation of his position in relation to Quakerism and to the ecumenical church. Though Jones taught both general and Biblical ethics, he did not publish a complete ethical system. Thus it has been necessary to read, analyze, and correlate Jones's voluminous published and unpublished works as a foundation for the reconstruction of his ethics. This empirical method required an inductive search for and subsequent correlation of categories and principles which could serve coherently though arbitrarily as the basis for relevant findings.

O oscilador harmônico e o átomo de hidrogênio são resolvidos através deste formalismo. Para o potencial de Lennard-Jones (12,6) é utilizado o método variacional, onde utilizamos a supersimetria para encontrar uma função de onda que se assemelhe com a função real, este procedimento é feito através da escolha de um superpotencial que gere um potencial efetivo que se aproxima do potencial original. Com isto as autofunções e os autovalores para o estado fundamental e o primeiro estado excitado são encontrados. Alguns resultados numéricos obtidos são comparados com outros encontrados na literatura. / In this work it is presented the supersymmetrical formalism that consists of a generalization of the factorization method to find the solution of Schrödinger equation. The harmonic oscillator and the hydrogen atom are decided through this formalism. For the potential of Lennard-Jones (12,6) the variational method is used, where we use the supersymmetry to find a wave function that is similar to the real function, this procedure is made through the choice of a superpotential that generates an effective potential that approaches to the original potential. With this the autofunctions and the autovalues for the fundamental state and the first state excited are found. Some gotten numerical results are compared with others found in the literature.
