We present a novel approach for solving the time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation (TDSE). The method we propose converts the TDSE to an equivalent Volterra integral equation; introducing a global Lagrange interpolation of the integrand…

Solutions to explicit time-dependent problems in quantum mechanics are rare. In fact, all known solutions are coupled to specific properties of the Hamiltonian and may be divided into two categories: One class consists of time-dependent…

After the review by Hauge and Stovneng the old question of "How long does it take to tunnel through the barrier?" has not still lost its relevance. As before, there is no clear answer to this question even for the one-dimensional completed…
We develop a semiclassical approach for the statistics of the time delay in quantum chaotic systems in the presence of a tunnel barrier, for broken time-reversal symmetry. Results are obtained as asymptotic series in powers of the…
Tunneling time, time needed for a quantum particle to tunnel through a potential energy barrier, can be measured by a duration marker. One such marker is spin reorientation due to Larmor precession. With a weak magnetic field in $z$…
A derivation of the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation from the time-independent one is considered. Instead of time, the coordinate of an additional degree of freedom, the clock, is introduced into the original time-independent…

Tunneling time in attosecond and strong field experiments is one of the most controversial issues in today's research, because of its importance to the theory of time, the time operator and the time-energy uncertainty relation in quantum…
How much time does a wave packet spent in tunneling a barrier? Quantum mechanical calculations result in zero time inside a barrier. In the nineties analogous tunneling experiments with microwaves were carried out confirming quantum…
In this paper we calculate the analytic expression of the phase time for the scattering of an electron off a complex square barrier. As is well known the (negative) imaginary part of the potential takes into account, phenomenologically, the…

Recent studies of the tunnelling through two opaque barriers claim that the transit time is independent of the barrier widths and of the separation distance between the barriers. We observe, in contrast, that if multiple reflections are…
The time it takes a quantum system to complete a tunneling event (which in the case of cross-barrier tunneling can be viewed as the time spent in a classically forbidden area) is related to the time required for a state to evolve to an…
