How quantum tunneling will behave when the singularity is preserved as much as possible is the main question of this paper. We get that the Coulomb sibgularity is reflected as infinitly accelerated oscillations in the transmission…

Quantum tunneling is considered from the point of view of local realism. It is concluded that a quantum object tunneling through a potential barrier cannot be interpreted as a point-like particle because such an interpretation generates a…
