Possible ferromagnetism of a free-electron pair

A Priori
◽
It is pointed out that the relation E(ΦA) < E(ΦS) holds for a free-electron pair within a potential box on condition that the assumptions of (i) the continuity of wave functions and their derivatives, (ii) very thin potential box, and (iii) weak Coulomb interaction between the electrons, are satisfied; E(ΦA) denotes the lowest energy of the triplet state of the pair with which a net spin magnetic moment may be associated E(ΦS) is the lowest energy of the nonmagnetic singlet state of the pair. Mutual position of E(ΦA) and E(ΦS) cannot be predicted a priori, as wave functions ΦA and ΦS fulfill different boundary conditions.
