Quantum kinetic energy densities: an operational approach.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose and investigate a procedure to measure, at least in principle, a positive quantum version of the local kinetic energy density. This procedure is based, under certain idealized limits, on the detection rate of photons emitted by moving atoms which are excited by a localized laser beam. The same type of experiment, but in different limits, can also provide other non-positive-definite versions of the kinetic energy density. A connection with quantum arrival time distributions is discussed.

متن کاملQuantum Hydrodynamic models derived from the entropy principle
In this work, we give an overview of recently derived quantum hydrodynamic and diffusion models. A quantum local equilibrium is defined as a minimizer of the quantum entropy subject to local moment constraints (such as given local mass, momentum and energy densities). These equilibria relate the thermodynamic parameters (such as the temperature or chemical potential) to the densities in a non-l...
متن کاملA dynamical model of the chemical bond: kinetic energy resonances between atomic electrons
While the theory of chemical bonding has advanced rapidly as more and more details of the quantum mechanical problem have been taken into account, surprisingly little effort has gone into the developement of intuitive models to interpret the results obtained by more sophisticated means. This article introduces an approach to chemical bonding, which should give a better connection between basic ...

متن کاملKinetic energy functional for Fermi vapors in spherical harmonic confinement
Two equations are constructed which reflect, for fermions moving independently in a spherical harmonic potential, a differential virial theorem and a relation between the turning points of kinetic energy and particle densities. These equations are used to derive a differential equation for the particle density and a non-local kinetic energy functional.
