Using a dynamical model relevant to cold-atom experiments, we show that long-lasting exponential spreading of wave packets in momentum space is possible. Numerical results are explained via a pseudo-classical map, both qualitatively and…

Super-diffusion, characterized by a spreading rate $t^{1/\alpha}$ of the probability density function $p(x,t) = t^{-1/\alpha} p \left( t^{-1/\alpha} x , 1 \right)$, where $t$ is time, may be modeled by space-fractional diffusion equations…
