Rotation Operator Vs Particle Creation in a Curved Space Time
نویسنده
چکیده
Taking into account a neutral massive scalar field minimally coupled to gravity, in a Robertson-Walker metric, it is shown that when the final state is connected with the initial one by means of a Bogoliubov transformation, which does not include the single-mode rotation operator, the mean value of created particles is conserved. When the rotation operator is considered, it is still possible to use the approach of single-mode squeezed operators and get the entropy as the logarithm of the created particles.

Quantum Maupertuis Principle
According to the Maupertuis principle, the movement of a classical particle in an external potential V (x) can be understood as the movement in a curved space with the metric gμν(x) = 2M [V (x) − E]δμν . We show that the principle can be extended to the quantum regime, i.e., we show that the wave function of the particle follows a Schrödinger equation in curved space where the kinetic operator ...

متن کاملSolution of Coulomb Path Integral in Momentum Space
The path integral for a point particle in a Coulomb potential is solved in momentum space. The solution permits us to answer for the first time an old question of quantum mechanics in curved spaces raised in 1957 by DeWitt: The Hamiltonian of a particle in a curved space must not contain an additional term proportional to the curvature scalar R, since this would change the level spacings in the...
متن کاملHow the Geometric Calculus Resolves the Ordering Ambiguity of Quantum Theory in Curved space
The long standing problem of the ordering ambiguity in the definition of the Hamilton operator for a point particle in curved space is naturally resolved by using the powerful geometric calculus based on Clifford Algebra. The momentum operator is defined to be the vector derivative (the gradient) multiplied by −i; it can be expanded in terms of basis vectors γμ as p = −iγ∂μ. The product of two ...

In this paper a non-relativistic particle moving on a hypersurface in a curved space and the multidimensional rotator are investigated using the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism. The equivalence with the Dirac Hamiltonian formalism is demonstrated in both Cartesian and curvilinear coordinates. The energy spectrum of the multi-dimensional rotator is equal to that of a pure Laplace-Beltrami operator wit...
