Abstract: We restrict a quantum particle under a coulombian potential (i.e., the Schr"odinger operator with inverse of the distance potential) to three dimensional tubes along the x-axis and diameter varepsilon, and study the confining limit varepsilono0. In the repulsive case we prove a strong resolvent convergence to a one-dimensional limit operator, which presents Dirichlet boundary condition at the origin. Due to the possibility of the falling of the particle in the center of force, in the attractive case we need to regularize the potential and also prove a norm resolvent convergence to the Dirichlet operator at the origin. Thus, it is argued that, among the infinitely many self-adjoint realizations of the corresponding problem in one dimension, the Dirichlet boundary condition at the origin is the reasonable one-dimensional limit.
