A note on the application of the semiclassical wave packet dynamics

Michal Kolář, M. K. Ali, S. F. O’Shea

The optimal choice of the initial parameters of the Gaussian wave packets in the time dependent quantum mechanical calculations using a Gaussian wave packet representation of the wave function is discussed. The proposed procedure is illustrated with the simple case of one dimensional scattering and the propagation of the ground state of the Morse potential.

Gross Pitaevskii Equation with a Morse potential: bound states and evolution of wave packet

Sukla Pal, Jayanta K. Bhattacharjee

We consider systems governed by the Gross Pitaevskii equation (GPE) with the Morse potential $V(x)=D(e^{-2ax}-2e^{-ax})$ as the trapping potential. For positive values of the coupling constant $g$ of the cubic term in GPE, we find that the critical value $g_c$ beyond which there are no bound states scales as $D^{3/4}$ (for large $D$). Studying the quantum evolution of wave packets, we observe that for $gg_c$, on the otherhand, all initial wave packets escape from the potential and the dynamics is like that of a quantum free particle. For $g<0$, we find that there can be initial conditions for which the escaping wave packet can propagate with very little change in width i,e., it remains almost shape invariant.

We consider systems governed by the Gross Pitaevskii equation (GPE) with the Morse potential V(x)=D(e−2ax−2e−ax)V(x)=D(e^{-2ax}-2e^{-ax})V(x)=D(e−2ax−2e−ax) as the trapping potential. For positive values of the coupling constant ggg of the cubic term in GPE, we find that the critical value gcg_cgc​ beyond which there are no bound states scales as D3/4D^{3/4}D3/4 (for large DDD). Studying the quantum evolution of wave packets, we observe that for ggcgg_cggc​, on the otherhand, all initial wave packets escape from the potential and the dynamics is like that of a quantum free particle. For g<0g<0g<0, we find that there can be initial conditions for which the escaping wave packet can propagate with very little change in width i,e., it remains almost shape invariant.
