Manifestly Covariant Approach to Bargmann-Wigner Fields (I): Generalized scalar products and Wigner states
Manifestly covariant formalism for Bargmann-Wigner fields is developed. It is shown that there exists some freedom in the choice of the form of the Bargmann-Wigner scalar product: The general product depends implicitly on a family of world-vectors. The standard choice of the product corresponds to timelike and equal vectors which define a “time” direction. The generalized form shows that formul...
متن کاملDetermination of the Wigner Function from Photon Statistics *
We present an experimental realisation of the direct scheme for measuring the Wigner function of a single quantized light mode. In this method, the Wigner function is determined as the expectation value of the photon number parity operator for the phase space displaced quantum state. The Wigner function provides a complete representation of the quantum state in the form that is analogous to a c...
متن کاملWigner Function and Decoherence
I briefly review the role of the Wigner function in the study of the quantum-to-classical transition through interaction with the environment (decoherence). My contribution to the Fifth Wigner Symposium in Vienna touches upon two of Wigner’s fields of interest: His work on the interpretation of quantum theory [1] and his discussion of quasi-probability functions as encoded in the famous Wigner ...
متن کاملBounds on Integrals of the Wigner Function
The integral of the Wigner function over a subregion of the phasespace of a quantum system may be less than zero or greater than one. It is shown that for systems with one degree of freedom, the problem of determining the best possible upper and lower bounds on such an integral, over all possible states, reduces to the problem of finding the greatest and least eigenvalues of an hermitian operat...
متن کاملProbabilistic aspects of Wigner function
The Wigner function of quantum systems is an effective instrument to construct the approximate classical description of the systems for which the classical approximation is possible. During the last time, the Wigner function formalism is applied as well to seek indications of specific quantum properties of quantum systems leading to impossibility of the classical approximation construction. Mos...
