We examine a fast decay process that arises in the transition period between the Gaussian and exponential decay processes in quantum decay systems. It is usually expected that the decay is decelerated by a confinement potential barrier.…
Classical escape in 2D Hamiltonian systems with the mixed state has been studied numerically and analytically. The wide class of potentials with the mixed state is presented by polinomial potentials. In potentials, where the mixed state…
We consider two models of deterministic active particles in an external potential. In the limit where the speed of a particle is fixed, both models coincide and can be formulated as a Hamiltonian system, but only if the potential is…
A discrete time quantum walk is considered in which the step lengths are chosen to be either $1$ or $2$ with the additional feature that the walker is persistent with a probability $p$. This implies that with probability $p$, the walker…
It is well known, both theoretically and experimentally, that the survival probability for an unstable quantum state, formed at $t=0,$ is not a simple exponential function, even if the latter is a good approximation for intermediate times.…
In simple -- but selected -- quantum systems, the probability distribution determined by the ground state wave function is infinitely divisible. Like all simple quantum systems, the Euclidean temporal extension leads to a system that…
We study the time evolution of a three dimensional quantum particle, initially in a bound state, under the action of a time-periodic zero range interaction with ``strength'' (\alpha(t)). Under very weak generic conditions on the Fourier…
We investigate the escape rate of an overdamped, self-propelled spherical Brownian particle on a surface from a metastable potential well. Within a modeling in terms of a 1D constant speed of the particle's active dynamics we consider the…
The chaotic diffusion for particles moving in a time dependent potential well is described by using two different procedures: (i) via direct evolution of the mapping describing the dynamics and ; (ii) by the solution of the diffusion…
Results of theoretical studies of the quantum unstable systems caused that there are rather widespread belief that a universal feature od the quantum decay process is the presence of three time regimes of the decay process: the early time…
The motion of a lazy Pearson walker is studied with different probability ($p$) of jump in two and three dimensions. The probability of exit ($P_e$) from a zone of radius $r_e$, is studied as a function of $r_e$ with different values of…
We present a model of discrete quantum evolution based on quantum correlations between the evolving system and a reference quantum clock system. A quantum circuit for the model is provided, which in the case of a constant Hamiltonian is…
Inspired by quantum cosmology, in which the wave function of the universe is annihilated by the total Hamiltonian, we consider the internal dynamics of a simple particle system in an energy eigenstate. Such a system does not possess a…
We extend previous work on the arrival time problem in quantum mechanics, in the framework of decoherent histories, to the case of a particle coupled to an environment. The usual arrival time probabilities are related to the probability…
Recent experimental studies have shown that the relaxation time, $T_1$, and the dephasing time, $T_2$, of superconducting qubits fluctuate considerably over time. Time-varying quantum channel (TVQC) models have been proposed in order to…
This paper focuses on the escape problem of a harmonically-forced classical particle from a purely-quartic truncated potential well. The latter corresponds to various engineering systems that involve purely cubic restoring force and absence…
We present a Bohmian description of a decaying quantum system. A particle is initially confined in a region around the origin which is surrounded by a repulsive potential barrier. The particle leaks out in time tunneling through the…
We introduce a formalism for the calculation of the time of arrival t at a detector of particles traveling through interacting environments. We develop a general formulation that employs quantum canonical transformations from the free to…
While exponential decay is ubiquitous in Nature, deviations at both short and long times are dictated by quantum mechanics. Non-exponential decay is known to arise due to the possibility of reconstructing the initial state from the decaying…
We consider a random walk with death in $[-N,N]$ moving in a time dependent environment. The environment is a system of particles which describes a current flux from $N$ to $-N$. Its evolution is influenced by the presence of the random…
