The tunneling time problem earlier studied in \href{https://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevLett.108.170402}{Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{108}, 170402 (2012)} using a non-relativistic time-of-arrival (TOA) operator predicted that tunneling time is instantaneous implying that the wavepacket becomes superluminal below the barrier. The non-relativistic treatment raises the question whether the superluminal behavior is a mere non-relativistic phenomenon or an an inherent quantum effect… Read More »

By | May 19, 2022

A time of arrival (TOA) operator that is conjugate with the system Hamiltonian was constructed by Galapon without canonical quantization in [J. Math. Phys. \textbf{45}, 3180 (2004)]. The constructed operator was expressed as an infinite series but only the leading term was investigated which was shown to be equal to the Weyl-quantized TOA-operator for entire… Read More »

The values of the Riemann zeta function at odd positive integers, , are shown to admit a representation proportional to the finite-part of the divergent integral . Integral representations for are then deduced from the finite-part integral representation. Certain relations between and are likewise deduced, from which integral representations for are obtained.

By | March 4, 2022

A relativistic version of the Aharonov-Bohm time of arrival operator for spin-0 particles was constructed by Razavi in [Il Nuovo Cimento B \textbf{63}, 271 (1969)]. We study the operator in detail by taking its rigged Hilbert space extension. It is shown that the rigged Hilbert space extension of the operator provides more insights into the… Read More »

By | March 4, 2022

A time operator is a Hermitian operator that is canonically conjugate to a given Hamiltonian. For a particle in 1-dimension, a Hamiltonian conjugate operator in position representation can be obtained by solving a hyperbolic second-order partial differential equation, known as the time kernel equation, with some boundary conditions. One possible solution is the time of… Read More »

By | March 4, 2022

Finite-part integration is a recent method of evaluating a convergent integral in terms of the finite-parts of divergent integrals deliberately induced from the convergent integral itself [E. A. Galapon, Proc. R. Soc., A 473, 20160567 (2017)]. Within the context of finite-part integration of the Stieltjes transform of functions with logarithmic growths at the origin, the… Read More »

By | December 5, 2020

Finite-part integration is a recently introduced method of evaluating convergent integrals by means of the finite part of divergent integrals [E.A. Galapon, {\it Proc. R. Soc. A 473, 20160567} (2017)]. Current application of the method involves exact and asymptotic evaluation of the generalized Stieltjes transform under the assumption that the extension of in the complex… Read More »

By | August 12, 2019

Abstract We consider the quantum traversal time of an incident wave packet across a potential well using the theory of quantum time of arrival (TOA)-operators. This is done by constructing the corresponding TOA-operator across a potential well via quantization. The expectation value of the potential well TOA-operator is compared to the free particle case for… Read More »
