Quantum interference: from kaons to neutrinos (with quantum beats in between)

Michael Martin Nieto

Using the vehicle of resolving an apparent paradox, a discussion of quantum interference is presented. The understanding of a number of different physical phenomena can be unified, in this context. These range from the neutral kaon system to massive neutrinos, not to mention quantum beats, Rydberg wave packets, and neutron gravity.

Probing the Leggett-Garg inequality for oscillating neutral kaons and neutrinos

Debashis Gangopadhyay, Dipankar Home, Animesh Sinha Roy

The Leggett-Garg inequality (LGI) as a temporal analog of Bell's inequality, derived using the notion of realism, is studied in a hitherto unexplored context involving weak-interaction-induced two-state oscillations of decaying neutral kaons and neutrinos. The maximum violation of the LGI obtained from the relevant quantum mechanical results is significantly higher for oscillating neutrinos compared to that for kaons. Interestingly, the effect of CP noninvariance for the kaon oscillation is to enhance this violation, while, for neutrinos, the violation is sensitive to the value of mixing parameter.

From kaons to neutrinos: quantum mechanics of particle oscillations

Marek Zrałek

The problem of particle oscillation is considered in a pedagogical and comprehensive way. Examples from K, B and neutrino physics are given. Conceptual difficulties of the traditional approach to particle oscillation are discussed. It is shown how the probability current density and the wave packet treatments of particle oscillations resolve some problems. It is also shown that only full field theoretical approach is free from conceptual difficulties. The possibility of oscillation of particles produced together with kaons or neutrinos is considered in full wave packet quantum mechanics language. Precise definition of the oscillation of particles which recoil against mixed states is given. The general amplitude which describes the oscillation of two particles in the final states is found. Using this EPR-type amplitude the problem of oscillation of particles recoiling against kaons or neutrinos is resolved. The relativistic EPR correlations on distances of the order of coherence lengths are considered.
