We consider wave propagation in a complex structure coupled to a finite number $N$ of scattering channels, such as chaotic cavities or quantum dots with external leads. Temporal aspects of the scattering process are analysed through the…
Wigner-Smith (WS) time delay concepts have been used extensively in quantum mechanics to characterize delays experienced by particles interacting with a potential well. This paper formally extends WS time delay theory to Maxwell's equations…
In scattering theory, the Wigner-Smith time delay, calculated through a phaseshift derivative or its multichannel generalization, has been demonstrated to measure the amount of delay or advance experienced by colliding particles during…
We consider the scattering by a one-dimensional random potential and derive the probability distribution of the corresponding Wigner time delay. It is shown that the limiting distribution is the same for two different models and coincides…
The scattering matrix $S$ linearly relates the vector of incoming waves to outgoing wave excitations, and contains an enormous amount of information about the scattering system and its connections to the scattering channels. Time delay is…
Transparent boundary conditions for the time-dependent Schrodinger equation are implemented using the R-matrix method. The employed scattering formalism is suitable for describing open quantum systems and provides the framework for the…
We study the theory of scattering for a Schr"odinger equation in an external time dependent magnetic field in the Coulomb gauge, in space dimension 3. The magnetic vector potential is assumed to satisfy decay properties in time that are…
We study the occurence of delay mechanisms other than periodic orbits in systems with time dependent potentials that exhibit chaotic scattering. By using as model system two harmonically oscillating disks on a plane, we have found the…
A one-dimensional scattering problem off a $\delta$-shaped potential is solved analytically and the time development of a wave packet is derived from the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation. The exact and explicit expression of the…
We consider reflection and transmission of 2D quantum wavepackets with phase vortices (also known in optics as spatiotemporal vortex pulses) at potential step-like, delta-function, and rectangular barriers. The presence of a vortex…
The Wigner-Smith time-delay of flux conserving systems is a real quantity that measures how long an excitation resides in an interaction region. The complex generalization of time-delay to non-Hermitian systems is still under development,…
This report deals with the basic concepts on deducing transit times for quantum scattering: the stationary phase method and its relation with delay times for relativistic and non-relativistic tunneling particles. We notice that the…
We present a step by step introduction to the notion of time-delay in classical and quantum mechanics, with the aim of clarifying its foundation at a conceptual level. In doing so, we motivate the introduction of the concepts of "fuzzy" and…
The Wigner-Smith (WS) time delay matrix relates a system's scattering matrix to its frequency derivative and gives rise to so-called WS modes that experience well-defined group delays when interacting with the system. For systems composed…
Resonant scattering of weak coherent laser pulses on a single two-level system (TLS) realized in a semiconductor quantum dot is investigated with respect to a time delay between incoming and scattered light. This type of time delay was…
We construct time-dependent wave operators for Schr\"{o}dinger equations with long-range potentials on a manifold $M$ with asymptotically conic structure. We use the two space scattering theory formalism, and a reference operator on a space…
We introduce a complex generalization of Wigner time delay $\tau$ for sub-unitary scattering systems. Theoretical expressions for complex time delay as a function of excitation energy, uniform and non-uniform loss, and coupling, are given.…
Transport and scattering phenomena in open quantum-systems with a continuous energy spectrum are conveniently solved using the time-dependent Schrodinger equation. In the time-dependent picture, the evolution of an initially localized…
We apply Brunetti and Fredenhagen's [Phys. Rev. A 66 (2002) 044101] concept of the time of occurrence of an event in quantum mechanics to the example of scattering off a spherical potential. Thereby, we re-derive the expression of…
A {\it completed} scattering of a particle on a static one-dimensional (1D) potential barrier is a combined quantum process to consist from two elementary sub-processes (transmission and reflection) evolved coherently at all stages of…
