Oscillators Perturbed by Gaussian Barriers

Sunney I. Chan, David Stelman

A simple method has been developed to generate the matrix elements of the operator exp (—βξ2) in the representation of the harmonic oscillator. These matrix elements are useful in double-minimum problems where the potential energy function may conveniently be represented by a perturbed harmonic oscillator with a Gaussian barrier. Some representative calculations involving such potential wells will also be presented.

Transformation properties of wave functions of a two-dimensional harmonic oscillator

I. E. Mazets

A transformation formula for wave functions of type $$\overset{\lower0.5em\hbox{$\smash{\scriptscriptstyle\smile}$}}{l}$$ , where ψn is the eigenfunction of a harmonic oscillator for the nth energy level, was found for an arbitrary rotation of the (x 1, x 2) Cartesian system. By way of example, matrix elements for contact interaction of two particles in an external harmonic potential field were calculated.

Diabatic Hamiltonian matrix elements made simple

K. Hagino, G. F. Bertsch

With a view to applying the generator coordinate method to large configuration spaces, we propose a simple approximate formula to compute diabatic many-body matrix elements without having to evaluate two-body interaction matrix elements. The method is illustrated with two analytically solvable Hamiltonians based on the harmonic oscillator.
