dc.descriptionWe obtain the rigorous WKB expansion to all orders for the radial Kepler problem, using the residue calculus in evaluating the WKB quantization condition in terms of a complex contour integral in the complexified coordinate plane. The procedure yields the exact energy spectrum of this Schrödinger eigenvalue problem and thus resolves the controversies around the so-called "Langer correction". The problem is nontrivial also because there are only a few systems for which all orders of the WKB series can be calculated, yielding a convergent series whose sum is equal to the exact result, and thus sheds new light to similar and more difficult problems.
