Higher Order Gamow States with Exponential Decay

Quantum Physics 2015-06-26 v1

Abstract

We derive Gamow vectors from S-matrix poles of higher multiplicity in analogy to the Gamow vectors describing resonances from first-order poles. With these vectors we construct a density operator that describes resonances associated with higher order poles that obey an exponential decay law. It turns out that this operator formed by these higher order Gamow vectors has a unique structure.
