چکیده

We study classical and quantum caustics for systems with quadratic Lagrangians of the form L = 1 2 ẋ − 1 2 λ(t)x − μ(t)x. After deriving the transition amplitude on caustics in a closed form, we consider the Gaussian slit experiment and point out that the focusing around caustics is stabilized against initial momentum fluctuations by quantum effect. PACS codes: 02.30.Hg; 03.65.-w; 03.65.Sq

Quantum Caustics for Systems with Quadratic Lagrangians

We study caustics in classical and quantum mechanics for systems with quadratic Lagrangians of the form L = 1 2 ẋ − 1 2 λ(t)x − μ(t)x. We derive a closed form of the transition amplitude on caustics and discuss their physical implications in the Gaussian slit (gedanken-)experiment. Application to the quantum mechanical rotor casts doubt on the validity of Jevicki’s correspondence hypothesis whi...

Gaussian Beam Summation for Diffraction in Inhomogeneous Media Based on the Grid Based Particle Method

We develop an efficient numerical method to compute single slit or double slit diffraction patterns from high frequency wave in inhomogeneous media. We approximate the high frequency asymptotic solution to the Helmholtz equation using the Eulerian Gaussian beam summation proposed in [20, 21]. The emitted rays from a slit are embedded in the phase space using an open segment. The evolution of th...

بررسی اثر صحیح کوانتومی هال در سیستمهای دارای ناخالصی به روش تبدیل پیمانه‌ای در حضور نقطه‌های کوانتومی

In this paper we study the integer quantum Hall effect (IQHE) on the systems with different types of impurities in delta and gaussian forms. The Landau energy levels in the presence of impurity split in two different levels,the extended and localized levels, emerging then the Hall step. Finally, we add a specified form of a quantum dot potential to a system with impurity, and observed that incr...

A numerical study of the Gaussian beam methods for one-dimensional Schrödinger-Poisson equations

As an important model in quantum semiconductor devices, the Schrödinger-Poisson equations have generated widespread interests in both analysis and numerical simulations in recent years. In this paper, we present Gaussian beam methods for the numerical simulation of the one-dimensional Schrodinger-Poisson equations. The Gaussian beam methods for high frequency waves outperform the geometrical op...
