Chaotic scattering is a manifestation of transient chaos realized by the scattering with non-integrable potential. When the initial position is taken in the potential, a particle initially exhibits chaotic motion, but escapes outside after…

The dynamics of a closed quantum system is often studied with the direct evolution of the Schrodinger equation. In this paper, we propose that the gauge choice (i.e. degrees of freedom irrelevant to physical observables) of the Schrodinger…
Contrary to common belief, it is not difficult to construct deterministic models where stochastic behavior is correctly described by quantum mechanical amplitudes, in precise accordance with the Copenhagen-Bohr-Bohm doctrine. What is…
