Minimal Uncertainty in Quantal System Obeying the su(2)-Algebra
Masatoshi Yamamura, A. Kuriyama
Abstract
A viewpoint for describing time development of wave packet with the least quantal effect is proposed in the case of system obeying the su(2)-algebra, i.e., the quasi-spin. The basic idea is a possible extension of a method developed by the present authors, together with Tsue and Fujiwara, for one-dimensional system. Concerning the least quantal effect, the uncertainty relations coming from the non-commutability among the components of the quasi-spin are investigated and a certain condition for the least quantal effect in the quasi-spin is presented.
