ANALYTICAL SOLUTION OF THE BLOCH NMR FLOW EQUATIONS: A QUANTUM MECHANICAL MODEL FOR GENERAL FLUID FLOW ANALYSIS

Abstract

The equations of fluid mechanics, coupled with those that describe matter transportation at the molecular level must be handled effectively. Putting the fluid into equations, we model the Bloch NMR flow equations into the harmonic wave equation for the analysis of general fluid flow. We derived the solution of the modelled harmonic equation in non relativistic quantum mechanics and discuss its semi classical application to illustrate its potential wide-ranging usefulness in the search for the best possible data obtainable for general fluid flow analysis. Representing the solution of the derived harmonic wave equation by a normalized state function is quite useful in generating the properly normalized wave functions and in the efficient evaluation of expectation values of many operators that can be fundamental to the analysis of fluid flow especially at the microscopic level.

A quantum mechanical model of the Bloch NMR flow equations for electron dynamics in fluids at the molecular level

Bamidele Omotayo Awojoyogbe

Understanding of processes such as carrier mobility, electron transfer reactions, chemical reactions in fluids, electron solvation in fluids and electron attachment and localization in clusters relies crucially on the understanding of electron dynamics in fluids at the molecular level. Because of its very small mass, an electron is a quantum object and some of its properties such as diffusion coefficient of a solvated electron in water can be explained only by resorting to quantum mechanical formulation. In this study, we have solved the Bloch NMR flow equations to describe the evolution of the wavelike properties and find the wave functions which can be useful to solve a particular fluid flow problem quantum mechanically. Based on the uncertainty principle, a wave packet is assumed to initially describe the fluid particle (electron) under study. Then, when the particle encounters a force (so its potential energy is no longer zero), the force modifies the wave packet. Finding such propagation techniques, and applying them appropriately can provide useful techniques to find solutions to biological, medical and physical problems which otherwise could not be easily solved.

MATHEMATICAL MODELLING OF BLOCH NMR TO SOLVE THE SCHRODINGER TIME DEPENDENT EQUATION

Moses Eterigho Emetere

Many solutions have been propounded for Schrodinger’s equation. The application of these solutions is restricted to a few aspects of physics. One of the methods used for solving the Schrodinger equation is the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method [1]. It was used to solve numerically the Schrodinger equation for ground state and excited state eigenvalues, and eigenfunctions for a single particle in one-, two-, and three-dimensional potential wells. In the past, analytical methods which have been used to solve the Schrodinger equation are: supersymmetry [1], Nikiforov Uvarov method (NU) [3], asymptotic iteration method (AIM) [4,5], hyperviria perturbation [6], exact quantization rule (EQR) [7], perturbative formalism [8], wave function ansatz method [9], and path integral [10]. In all these methods highlighted above, none has been incorporated with the Bloch NMR to solve nuclear spin among other problems in physics and chemistry. The solution of the Schrodinger equation using the mathematical modeling of Bloch NMR has wide range of applications in many fields of physics and chemistry. It can be used for checking and improving models developed to study quantum mechanical systems, improve on the effective analysis of biological systems, analyzing spin transport, nuclear spin dynamics, improvement of the numerical methods and so on. In Sec. 2, the solution of the Schrodinger is given. In Sec. 3, the solution was validated by applying it to the harmonic solution. The energy

A Fluid Perspective of Relativistic Quantum Mechanics

Asher Yahalom A

In previous papers, it has been shown how Schrödinger's equation which includes an electromagnetic field interaction can be deduced from a fluid dynamical Lagrangian of a charged potential flow that interacts with an electromagnetic field. The quantum behaviour is derived from Fisher information terms added to the classical Lagrangian, showing that a quantum mechanical system is driven by information and not only electromagnetic fields. This program was applied to Pauli's equations by removing the restriction of potential flow and using the Clebsch formalism. Although the analysis was quite successful, there were terms that did not admit interpretation, a number of which can be easily traced to the relativistic Dirac theory. Here, this analysis is repeated for a relativistic flow, pointing to a new approach for deriving relativistic quantum mechanics.

Variational Approach to Relativistic Fluid and Quantum Mechanics

Asher Yahalom A

Abstract In previous papers we have shown how Schrödinger’s equation which includes an electromagnetic field interaction can be deduced from a fluid dynamical Lagrangian of a charged potential flow that interacts with an electromagnetic field. The quantum behaviour was derived from Fisher information terms which were added to the classical Lagrangian. It was thus shown that a quantum mechanical system is drived by information and not only electromagnetic fields. This program was applied also to Pauli’s equations by removing the restriction of potential flow and using the Clebsch formalism. Although the analysis was quite successful there were still terms that did not admit interpretation, some of them can be easily traced to the relativistic Dirac theory. Here we repeat the analysis for a relativistic flow, pointing to a new approach for deriving relativistic quantum mechanics.

Comprehensive solutions to the Bloch equations and dynamical models for open two-level systems

Thomas E. Skinner

The Bloch equation and its variants constitute the fundamental dynamical model for arbitrary two-level systems. Many important processes, including those in more complicated systems, can be modeled and understood through the two-level approximation. It is therefore of widespread relevance, especially as it relates to understanding dissipative processes in current cutting-edge applications of quantum mechanics. Although the Bloch equation has been the subject of considerable analysis in the 70 years since its inception, there is still, perhaps surprisingly, significant work that can be done. This paper extends the scope of previous analyses. It provides a framework for more fully understanding the dynamics of dissipative two-level systems. A solution is derived that is compact, tractable, and completely general, in contrast to previous results. Any solution of the Bloch equation depends on three roots of a cubic polynomial that are crucial to the time dependence of the system. The roots are typically only sketched out qualitatively, with no indication of their dependence on the physical parameters of the problem. Degenerate roots, which modify the solutions, have been ignored altogether. Here the roots are obtained explicitly in terms of a single real-valued root that is expressed as a simple function of the system parameters. For the conventional Bloch equation, a simple graphical representation of this root is presented that makes evident the explicit time dependence of the system for each point in the parameter space. Several intuitive, visual models of system dynamics are developed. A Euclidean coordinate system is identified in which any generalized Bloch equation is separable, i.e., the sum of commuting rotation and relaxation operators. The time evolution in this frame is simply a rotation followed by relaxation at modified rates that play a role similar to the standard longitudinal and transverse rates. These rates are functions of the applied field, which provides information towards control of the dissipative process. The Bloch equation also describes a system of three coupled harmonic oscillators, providing additional perspective on dissipative systems.

Rendering the Navier–Stokes Equations for a Compressible Fluid into the Schrödinger Equation for Quantum Mechanics

Péter Vadász

The mass and momentum transfer phenomena in a compressible fluid represented by the Navier–Stokes equations are shown to convert into the Schrödinger equation for quantum mechanics. The complete Navier–Stokes equations render into an extended generalized version of Schrödinger equation. These results complement the Madelung’s (Zeitschrift für Physik 40 (3–4), pp. 322–326, 1926–1927) derivations that show how Schrödinger’s equation in quantum mechanics can be converted into the Euler equations for irrotational compressible flow. The theoretical results presented here join the classical Madelung paper to suggest the possibility that quantum effects at sub-atomic levels deal with a compressible fluid susceptible to wave propagation, rather than a particle. The link between such a fluid and the “quantum particle” is under current investigation.
