Semiclassical techniques constitute a promising route to approximate quantum dynamics based on classical trajectories starting from a quantum-mechanically correct distribution. One of their main drawbacks is the so-called zero-point energy…

The semiclassical propagation of spin coherent states is considered in complex phase space. For two time-independent systems we find the appropriate classical trajectories and show that their combined contributions are able to describe…
