... a) (15 points) In the following figures you can see for a given potential profile a set of eigenfunctions (left column) and a set of possible total energy values (right column) describing different scenarios of scattering for a particle incoming from the left side (here I plot the real part of the e ...

... I found it particularly beautiful in the presentation of the complex structure that you have left all modellmässig considerations to one side. The model-idea now finds itself in a difficult, fundamental [prinzipiellen] crisis, which I believe will end with a further radical sharpening of the opposit ...

Weak measurements [1] Pre and Post selection in strong measurements
... We call the state |Ψi the ”pre-selected state” which is the state we prepare the system at and we call the state hΦ| the ”post-selected state” which is the state the system is at the end of the process. These two measurements are strong measurements. We notice that similarly to eq. (1) formalism the ...

Spin-orbital separation in the quasi-one
... When viewed as an elementary particle, the electron has spin and charge. When binding to the atomic nucleus, it also acquires an angular momentum quantum number corresponding to the quantized atomic orbital it occupies. Even if electrons in solids form bands and delocalize from the nuclei, in Mott i ...

... What does that mean? There might be a deeper „classical“ theory that allows to eliminate the probabilistic predictions of quantum mechanics by referring to „hidden parameters“ The state 1/21/2 (|00i+|11i) on two spatially separated qubits exhibits „spooky actions at a distance“: when measured it beh ...

When to use Quantum Probabilities in Quantum - gaips - INESC-ID
... In quantum probability theory, events are characterized by a superposition state, which is represented by a state vector comprising the occurrence of all events. The probability of an event is given by the squared magnitude of the projection of this superposition state into the desired subspace. Thi ...
