Abstract
It is argued that Dirichlet is the physical boundary condition at the origin for the one-dimensional hydrogen atom: The three-dimensional hydrogen atom is confined to a tube, and the limit as the diameter of the tube cross section goes to zero is taken. It is shown that the energy expectations are finite only in case of Dirichlet boundary condition.
