The importance of this result is that it shows the wavefunction for the compound system is [[Quantum entanglement|entangled]], contrary to what one would normally think in a classical stand pointstandpoint. More importantly, it shows the energy of the hydrogen atom is not only associated with the electron but also with the proton, and the total state is not [[Product state|decomposable]] into a state for the electron and one for the proton separately.<ref name = "Dickson" />
