Larmor precession and barrier tunneling time of a neutral spinning particle

Zhi-Jian Li, J.-Q. Liang, Donald H. Kobe

The Larmor precession of a neutral spinning particle in a magnetic field confined to the region of a one-dimensional rectangular barrier is investigated for both a nonrelativistic and a relativistic incoming particle. The spin precession serves as a clock to measure the time spent by a quantum particle traversing a potential barrier. With the help of a general spin coherent state it is explicitly shown that the precession time is equal to the dwell time in both the nonrelativistic and relativistic cases. We also present a numerical estimation of the precession time showing an apparent superluminal tunneling.

Model for entangled states with spin-spin interaction

Yakir Aharonov, J. Anandan, G. Jordan Maclay +1 more

A system consisting of two neutral spin-1/2 particles is analyzed for two magnetic field perturbations: (1) an inhomogeneous magnetic field over all space, and (2) external fields over a half space containing only one of the particles. The field is chosen to point from one particle to the other, which results in essentially a one-dimensional problem. A number of interesting features are revealed for the first case: the singlet, which has zero potential energy in the unperturbed case, remains unstable in the perturbing field. The spin-zero component of the triplet evolves into a bound state with a double well potential, with the possibility of tunneling. Superposition states can be constructed which oscillate between entangled and unentangled states. For the second case, we show that changes in the magnetic field around one particle affect measurements of the spin of the entangled particle not in the magnetic field nonlocally. By using protective measurements, we show it is possible in principle to establish a nonlocal interaction using the two particles, provided the dipole-dipole potential energy does not vanish and is comparable to the potential energy of the particle in the external field.
