Abstract
We show that the eigenvalues of the Schrödinger equation with a Coulomb potential obtained in a paper published recently in this journal do not agree with the well-known ones appearing in the literature. We also show that the authors failed to calculate the canonical partition function for that system correctly and derived meaningless thermodynamic functions that depend on the orbital quantum number.
