A closed form expression for the higher-power coherent states (eigenstates of a) is given. The cases j = 3, 4 are discussed in detail, including the time-evolution of the probability densities. These are compared to the case j = 2, the evenand odd-coherent states. We give the extensions to the “effective” displacement-operator, higher-power squeezed states and to the ladder-operator/minimum-unc...
