We use the method of Laplace transformation to determine the dynamics of a wave packet that passes a barrier by tunneling. We investigate the transmitted wave packet and find that it can be resolved into a sequence of subsequent wave…
I show that the MacColl-Hartman effect, namely, the saturation of the group delay time of sub-barrier quantum tunneling as a function of the barrier width, comes from the saturating behavior of a more fundamental concept - the phase of the…
