Scattering and Tunneling in Real Quantum Mechanics
Firdevs Karakus, Daniil Stepanenko, Igor Volovich
Abstract
We establish the general form of the evolution equation and study scattering and tunneling in real quantum mechanics. We prove an analogue of Stone's theorem for a real Kahler space and derive the corresponding general evolution equation, whose evolution operator is both orthogonal and symplectic. We formulate scattering theory in terms of real wave operators and the associated S-matrix. For the class of potentials considered, we show that the differential scattering cross section is equivalent to that obtained in standard complex quantum mechanics. We also show that the tunneling probability in real quantum mechanics is identical to that in complex quantum mechanics.
