Coherent states of systems with pure continuous energy spectra
Zouhaı̈r Mouayn, Hashim A. Yamani
Abstract
While dealing with a Hamiltonian with a continuous spectrum, we use a tridiagonal method involving orthogonal polynomials to construct a set of coherent states obeying a Glauber-type condition. We perform a Bayesian decomposition of the weight function of the orthogonality measure to show that the obtained coherent states can be recast in the Gazeau–Klauder approach. The Hamiltonian of the ℓ-wave free particle is treated as an example to illustrate the method.
