We obtain the geometric phase for states of a particle in a spherical infinite potential well with a moving wall in two different cases; First, when the radius of the well increases (or decreases) monotonically. Second, when the radius…
Quantum mechanics allows the emergence of nonstatic quantum light waves in the Fock state even in a transparent medium of which electromagnetic parameters do not vary over time. Such wave packets become broad and narrow in turn periodically…
