Description

We comment on several incorrect results obtained by Dong and GarcIa-Ravelo (2007 Phys. Scr. 75 307) in the discussion of the bound-state solutions of the radial Schroedinger equation for the Manning-Rosen potential. We have identified the inconsistency in their reasoning on the allowed values of the parameter α and we have constructed the correct energy spectrum together with the normalized wavefunctions. Furthermore, we have shown that the wavefunction normalization constant can be obtained in closed form.
