Arrival time from the general theory of quantum time distributions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We further develop the general theory of quantum time distributions introduced in [D. Jurman and H. Nikolić, Phys. Lett. A 396, 127247 (2021)] apply it to find distribution arrival times at detector. Even though Hamiltonian absence detector is hermitian, evolution system before detection involves dealing with a non-hermitian operator obtained from projection hermitian onto region front Such formalism eventually gives rise simple physically sensible analytical expression for distribution, arbitrary wave packet moving one spatial dimension negligible distortion.

Ambiguities of arrival-time distributions in quantum theory
We consider the definition that might be given to the time at which a particle arrives at a given place, both in standard quantum theory and also in Bohmian mechanics. We discuss an ambiguity that arises in the standard theory in three, but not in one, spatial dimension. 1 Participating Guest, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory e-mail: [email protected]
متن کاملTime-of-arrival probabilities and quantum measurements
We study the construction of probability densities for time-of-arrival in quantum mechanics. Our treatment is based upon the facts that (i) time appears in quantum theory as an external parameter to the system, and (ii) propositions about the time-of-arrival appear naturally when one considers histories. The definition of time-of-arrival probabilities is straightforward in stochastic processes....
متن کاملTime of arrival in quantum mechanics.
We study the problem of computing the probability for the time-of-arrival of a quantum particle at a given spatial position. We consider a solution to this problem based on the spectral decomposition of the particle's (Heisenberg) state into the eigenstates of a suitable operator, which we denote as the \time-of-arrival" operator. We discuss the general properties of this operator. We construct...
