On pseudosupersymmetric oscillators and reality of relativistic energies for vector mesons

Jules Beckers, N. Debergh

Published Jan 1, 1995• 0 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

Specific oscillators - hereafter called pseudosupersymmetric oscillators - appear as interesting nonrelativistic concepts in connection with the study of relativistic vector mesons interacting with an external constant magnetic field when the real character of the energy eigenvalues is required as expected. A new pseudosupersymmetric quantum mechanics can then be developed and the corresponding pseudosupersymmetries can be pointed out.

FROM RELATIVISTIC VECTOR MESONS IN CONSTANT MAGNETIC FIELDS TO NONRELATIVISTIC (PSEUDO)SUPERSYMMETRIES

J. Beckers, N. Debergh

Results coming from the study of relativistic vector mesons interacting with a constant magnetic field are examined through Johnson-Lippmann implications on one-dimensional oscillatorlike systems. We obtain specific nonrelativistic Hamiltonians showing new properties in quantum mechanics and leading to superpositions of bosons and pseudofermions. Moreover, two “potentials” are introduced and discussed in comparison with recent developments usually obtained in p=2 parasupersymmetric quantum mechanics. Pseudofermions are also examined, particularly with respect to orthofermions.

On parasupersymmetric Hamiltonians and vector mesons in magnetic fields

N. Debergh

A new Sakata-Taketani equation describing vector mesons in interaction with a constant magnetic field is proposed. It leads to real energies as opposed to relativistic equations, which have already been pointed out, associated with this particular interacting context. In particular, the connection between this new proposal and a specific model coming from parasupersymmetric quantum mechanics is studied.

PSEUDOSUPERSYMMETRIC QUANTUM MECHANICS: GENERAL CASE, ORTHOSUPERSYMMETRIES, REDUCIBILITY, AND BOSONIZATION

C. Quesne, N. Vansteenkiste

Pseudosupersymmetric quantum mechanics (PsSSQM), based upon the use of pseudofermions, was introduced in the context of a new Kemmer equation describing charged vector mesons interacting with an external constant magnetic field. Here we construct the complete explicit solution for its realization in terms of two superpotentials, both equal or unequal. We prove that any orthosupersymmetric quantum mechanical system has a pseudosupersymmetry and give conditions under which a pseudosupersymmetric one may be described by orthosupersymmetries of order two. We propose two new matrix realizations of PsSSQM in terms of the generators of a generalized deformed oscillator algebra (GDOA) and relate them to the cases of equal or unequal superpotentials, respectively. We demonstrate that these matrix realizations are fully reducible and that their irreducible components provide two distinct sets of bosonized operators realizing PsSSQM and corresponding to nonlinear spectra. We relate such results to some previous ones obtained for a GDOA connected with a C3-extended oscillator algebra (where C3 = ℤ3) in the case of linear spectra.

The relativistic quantum mechanics of the elementary particles

H. S. Green

The search for a theory of the elementary particles which is founded on the well-established principles of quantum mechanics and conforms at the same time with the requirements of the principle of relativity has, in recent years, taken several divergent directions. On the one hand, the second quantization of wave fields derived from a Lagrangian by a variational procedure(1) has succeeded in accounting for the existence and most of the properties of the electron, the photon, and the meson. On the other hand, many generalizations of the Dirac wave equation of the electron(2) have been attempted, with applications to the meson(3) and the proton(4). Heisenberg(5) has considered the much more difficult problem of the interaction between different particles, and has found that the key to the situation is the so-called ‘scattering matrix’, which is nothing other than a limiting form of the relativistic density matrix, as defined in § 2 of this paper. It seems probable that the relativistic density matrix ρ; or statistical operator, as it may be called without reference to representation, will play an important part in relativistic quantum mechanics in the future. It satisfies the same equation as the wave function, but differs from it in being a real linear operator, or a dynamical variable, in the terminology of Dirac.

Pseudo-Hermiticity versus PT symmetry: The necessary condition for the reality of the spectrum of a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian

Ali Mostafazadeh

We introduce the notion of pseudo-Hermiticity and show that every Hamiltonian with a real spectrum is pseudo-Hermitian. We point out that all the PT-symmetric non-Hermitian Hamiltonians studied in the literature belong to the class of pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians, and argue that the basic structure responsible for the particular spectral properties of these Hamiltonians is their pseudo-Hermiticity. We explore the basic properties of general pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians, develop pseudosupersymmetric quantum mechanics, and study some concrete examples, namely the Hamiltonian of the two-component Wheeler–DeWitt equation for the FRW-models coupled to a real massive scalar field and a class of pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians with a real spectrum.

From nonrelativistic to relativistic properties of quantum harmonic oscillators

J. Beckers, Jean Ndimubandi

We investigate some possible connections between two recent approaches of so-called relativistic harmonic oscillators compatible with well known nonrelativistic properties. These approaches are not equivalent but can be related through simple arguments based on quantum deformations of oscillatorlike algebras when one-dimensional spatial developments are visited.
