Abstract
We obtain the squeezed coherent states (SCS) for a free particle with exponentially time-varying mass. We write these states in terms of the squeeze and displacement parameters on the time-independent Fock states. Thus, we find a condition on the displacement parameter such that the SCS can be considered semiclassical states. We show that it is possible to obtain the coherent states (CS) for a free particle with minimal uncertainty as long as the mass increases with the time. We analyze the transition probability of a system initially prepared in the time-independent Fock states to the free particle SCS.
