Abstract
The D-dimensional Schrödinger equation with attractive radial potential (ARP) is solved using asymptotic iteration method, and its approximate solutions are obtained in closed form. The normalised wave function of the potential model was also determined using the hypergeometric Gauss differential equation. The variation of the energy eigenvalues of ARP with different potential parameters and quantum numbers were discussed for selected dimensions. In addition, the thermal property expressions for ARP were obtained in closed form, and their variations with temperature were discussed extensively for various values of dimension. Critical temperature values were seen to exist for specific heat capacity, at unique dimensions. Our results agree with those obtained in the literatures.
