Correlations between a Hawking particle and its partner in a 1+1D Bose-Einstein condensate analog black hole

2020

The Fourier transform of the density-density correlation function in a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) analog black hole is a useful tool to investigate correlations between the Hawking particles and their partners. It can be expressed in terms of $⟨{^{\mathrm{out}}\stackrel{^}{a}}_{\mathrm{up}}^{\mathrm{ext}}\text{ }\text{ }{^{\mathrm{out}}\stackrel{^}{a}}_{\mathrm{up}}^{\mathrm{int}}⟩$, where ${^{\mathrm{out}}\stackrel{^}{a}}_{\mathrm{up}}^{\mathrm{ext}}$ is the annihilation operator for the Hawking particle and ${^{\mathrm{out}}\stackrel{^}{a}}_{\mathrm{up}}^{\mathrm{int}}$ is the corresponding one for the partner. This basic quantity is calculated for three different models for the BEC f…

Occupation Number Representation

2007

The first two chapters of this book presented angular momentum algebra as the basic tool of nuclear theory. That includes angular momentum coupling coefficients, spherical tensor operators and reduced matrix elements. In the preceding chapter we introduced the mean-field concept, along with associated many-nucleon wave functions, Slater determinants, describing configurations of non-interacting particles in mean-field single-particle orbitals.

Multiparticle correlations in the Schwinger mechanism

2009

We discuss the Schwinger mechanism in scalar QED and derive the multiplicity distribution of particles created under an external electric field using the LSZ reduction formula. Assuming that the electric field is spatially homogeneous, we find that the particles of different momenta are produced independently, and that the multiplicity distribution in one mode follows a Bose-Einstein distribution. We confirm the consistency of our results with an intuitive derivation by means of the Bogoliubov transformation on creation and annihilation operators. Finally we revisit a known solvable example of time-dependent electric fields to present exact and explicit expressions for demonstration.

The quantum relativistic harmonic oscillator: generalized Hermite polynomials

1991

A relativistic generalisation of the algebra of quantum operators for the harmonic oscillator is proposed. The wave functions are worked out explicitly in configuration space. Both the operator algebra and the wave functions have the appropriate c→∞ limit. This quantum dynamics involves an extra quantization condition mc2/ωℏ = 1, 32, 2, … of a topological character.

A Symmetry Adapted Approach to the Dynamic Jahn-Teller Problem

2011

In this article we present a symmetry-adapted approach aimed to the accurate solution of the dynamic Jahn-Teller (JT) problem. The algorithm for the solution of the eigen-problem takes full advantage of the point symmetry arguments. The system under consideration is supposed to consist of a set of electronic levels \({\Gamma }_{1},{\Gamma }_{2}\ldots {\Gamma }_{n}\) labeled by the irreducible representations (irreps) of the actual point group, mixed by the active JT and pseudo JT vibrational modes \({\Gamma }_{1},{\Gamma }_{2}\ldots {\Gamma }_{f}\) (vibrational irreps). The bosonic creation operators b +(Γγ) are transformed as components γ of the vibrational irrep Γ. The first excited vibra…

Pseudo-Bosons from Landau Levels

2010

We construct examples of pseudo-bosons in two dimensions arising from the Hamiltonian for the Landau levels. We also prove a no-go result showing that non-linear combinations of bosonic creation and annihilation operators cannot give rise to pseudo-bosons.

Construction of pseudo-bosons systems

2010

In a recent paper we have considered an explicit model of a PT-symmetric system based on a modification of the canonical commutation relation. We have introduced the so-called {\em pseudo-bosons}, and the role of Riesz bases in this context has been analyzed in detail. In this paper we consider a general construction of pseudo-bosons based on an explicit {coordinate-representation}, extending what is usually done in ordinary supersymmetric quantum mechanics. We also discuss an example arising from a linear modification of standard creation and annihilation operators, and we analyze its connection with coherent states.

A bounded version of bosonic creation and annihilation operators and their related quasi-coherent states

2007

Coherent states are usually defined as eigenstates of an unbounded operator, the so-called annihilation operator. We propose here possible constructions of {\em quasi-coherent states}, which turn out to be {\em quasi} eigenstate of a \underline{bounded} operator related to an annihilation-like operator. We use this bounded operator to construct a sort of modified harmonic oscillator and we analyze the dynamics of this oscillator from an algebraic point of view.
