Chaos in the Quantum Double Well Oscillator: The Ehrenfest View Revisited

Quantum Physics 2016-09-08 v2

Abstract

We treat the double well quantum oscillator from the standpoint of the Ehrenfest equation but in a manner different from Pattanayak and Schieve. We show that for short times there can be chaotic motion due to quantum fluctuations, but over sufficiently long times the behaviour is normal.
