Wave Packet in Quantum Cosmology and Definition of Semiclassical Time
We consider a quantum cosmology with a massless background scalar field φB and adopt a wave packet as the wave function. This wave packet is a superposition of the WKB form wave functions, each of which has a definite momentum of the scalar field φB. In this model it is shown that to trace the formalism of the WKB time is seriously difficult without introducing a complex value for a time. We de...
متن کاملWave packet tunneling
The tunneling of Gaussian wave packets has been investigated by numerically solving the one-dimensional Schrödinger equation. The shape of wave packets interacting with a square barrier has been monitored for various values of the barrier width, height and initial width of the wave packet. Compared to the case of free propagation, the maximum of a tunneled wave packet exhibits a shift, which ca...
متن کاملSymplectic semiclassical wave packet dynamics
The paper gives a symplectic-geometric account of semiclassical Gaussian wave packet dynamics. We employ geometric techniques to “strip away” the symplectic structure behind the time-dependent Schrödinger equation and incorporate it into semiclassical wave packet dynamics. We show that the Gaussian wave packet dynamics of Heller is a Hamiltonian system with respect to the symplectic structure, ...
متن کاملSemiclassical description of wave packet revival.
We test the ability of semiclassical theory to describe quantitatively the revival of quantum wave packets-a long time phenomena-in the one dimensional quartic oscillator (a Kerr type Hamiltonian). Two semiclassical theories are considered: time-dependent WKB and Van Vleck propagation. We show that both approaches describe with impressive accuracy the autocorrelation function and wave function ...
متن کاملSemiclassical wave packet dynamics for Hartree equations
We study the propagation of wave packets for nonlinear nonlocal Schrödinger equations in the semi-classical limit. When the kernel is smooth, we construct approximate solutions for the wave functions in subcritical, critical and supercritical cases (in terms of the size of the initial data). The validity of the approximation is proved up to Ehrenfest time. For homogeneous kernels, we establish ...
