The binding energy of a H-atom, considering an electron moving around a fixed nuclei (proton), is B = `- (Me^4)/(8n^2ε_0^2h^2)`. (m = electron mass). If one decides to work in a frame of reference where the electron is at rest, the proton would be moving around it. By similar arguments, the binding energy would be
B = `- (Me^4)/(8n^2ε_0^2h^2)` (M = proton mass)
