As an application of the polymer quantization scheme, in this work we investigate the one dimensional quantum mechanical tunneling phenomenon from the perspective of polymer representation of a non-relativistic point particle and derive the…
Non-Hermitian systems give rise to distinct topological phenomena, yet their manifestations at temporal interfaces characterized by abrupt changes in system parameters remain largely unex plored. Upon an abrupt alteration of the Hamiltonian…
We consider the magnetic flux in a quantum mechanical superposition of two values and find that the Aharonov-Bohm effect interference pattern contains information about the nature of the superposition, allowing information about the state…
The stationary phase method is often employed for computing tunneling {\em phase} times of analytically-continuous {\em gaussian} or infinite-bandwidth step pulses which collide with a potential barrier. The indiscriminate utilization of…
Following our work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 020401 (2020)], we discuss a semiclassical description of one-dimensional quantum tunneling through multibarrier potentials in terms of complex time. We start by defining a complex-extended…
We study a mesoscopic ring with an in-line quantum dot threaded by an Aharonov-Bohm flux. Zero-point fluctuations of the electromagnetic environment capacitively coupled to the ring, with $\omega^s$ spectral density, can suppress tunneling…
In quantum mechanics the time dimension is treated as a parameter, while the three space dimensions are treated as observables. This assumption is both untested and inconsistent with relativity. From dimensional analysis, we expect quantum…
We consider the problem of tunneling escape of particles from a multiparticle system confined within a potential trap. The process is nonlinear due to the interparticle interaction. Using the hydrodynamic representation for the quantum…
We study the effect of a time-varying solenoidal vector potential for a quantum particle confined to a ring. The setup appears to be a time-varying version of the Aharonov-Bohm effect, but since the particle moves in the presence of fields,…
The development of advanced quantum technologies and the quest for a deeper understanding of many-particle quantum mechanics requires control over the quantum state of interacting particles to a high degree of fidelity. However, the quickly…
It is known that effects of dissipation or measurement backreaction in postselected quantum trajectories are described by non-Hermitian Hamiltonian, but their consequences in real-time dynamics of many-body systems are yet to be elucidated.…
Distributions of electron waiting times have been measured in several recent experiments and have been shown to provide complementary information compared to what can be learned from the electric current fluctuations. Existing theories,…
In this note we use the notion of time-delay to explain the physical content of the transformation properties of transmission and reflection amplitudes, as a result of a displacement of the potential. Then, we reconsider the recent analysis…
We develop a general framework for the construction of probabilities for the time of arrival in quantum systems. The time of arrival is identified with the time instant when a transition in the detector's degrees of freedom takes place.…
The discovery of topological phases in condensed matter systems has changed the modern conception of phases of matter. The global nature of topological ordering makes these phases robust and hence promising for applications. However, the…
An investigation into Schwinger pair production mechanisms is presented, demonstrating that vacuum tunneling processes can be effectively controlled through electromagnetic potential modulation while maintaining the strong ffelds in the…
We are in the process of building an experiment to study the tunneling of laser-cooled Rubidium atoms through an optical barrier. A particularly thorny set of questions arises when one considers the possibility of observing a tunneling…
Electron tunneling between quantum Hall systems on the same two dimensional plane separated by a narrow barrier is studied. We show that in the limit where inelastic scattering time is much longer than the tunneling time, which can be…
We analyze the effects of inelastic scattering on the tunneling time theoretically, using generalized Nelson's quantum mechanics. This generalization enables us to describe quantum system with optical potential and channel couplings in a…
The Aharonov-Bohm effect is a genuine quantum effect typically characterized by a measurable phase shift in the wave function for a charged particle that encircles an electromagnetic field located in a region inaccessible to the mentioned…
