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.

متن کاملQuantum 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...
متن کاملGaussian 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...
متن کاملA 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...
