SWKB for the Angular Momentum
It has been recently shown [M. Robnik and L. Salasnich, J. Phys. A: Math. Gen., 30, 1719 (1997)] that the WKB series for the quantization of angular momentum L converges to the exact value L = h̄l(l + 1), if summed over all orders, and gives the Langer formula L = h̄(l + 1/2) at the leading order. In this work we solve the eigenvalue problem of the angular momentum operator by using the supersymm...
متن کاملWKB expansion for the angular momentum and the Kepler problem: from the torus quantization to the exact one
We calculate the WKB series for the angular momentum and the non–relativistic 3-dim Kepler problem. This is the first semiclassical treatment of the angular momentum for terms beyond the leading WKB approximation. We explain why the torus quantization (the leading WKB term) of the full problem is exact, even if the individual torus quantization of the angular momentum and of the radial Kepler p...
متن کاملSemiclassical Expansion for the Angular Momentum
The semiclassical method of torus quantization is just the first term of a certain h̄-expansion, usually called the WKB expansion. The method goes back to the early days of quantum mechanics and was developed by Bohr and Sommerfeld for onefreedom systems and separable systems, it was then generalized for integrable (but not necessarily separable) systems by Einstein [1], which is called EBK or t...
متن کاملStudy on Generation of Higher Order Orbital Angular Momentum Modes and Parameters Affecting the Vortex
In this manuscript, higher-order Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) modes and parameters affecting vortex in the radiation pattern have been studied. A uniform circular array resonating at 10 GHz frequency is formed using eight identical rectangular patch antennas. Three uniform circular arrays are analyzed, simulated, and fabricated for OAM modes 0, +1, and -1 respectively. The higher-order OAM mo...
متن کاملSemiclassical matrix-mechanics. II. Angular momentum operators
Semiclassical angular momentum matrices are calculated using a new contourintegral formula for matrix-elements WKB sphencal harrnonic functions are found to be exactly orthonormal with the contour-integral inner-product Matnx-elements obtained from these wavefunctions are accurate to about 2 9b and the matrices obey the cornrnutation relations expected of quantum angular momentum operators The ...
