WKB corrections to the energy splitting in double-well potentials
Marko Robnik, Luca Salasnich
Abstract
By using the WKB quantization we deduce an analytical formula for the energy splitting in a double-well potential which is the usual Landau formula with additional quantum corrections. Then we analyze the accuracy of our formula for the double square well potential and the parabolic double-well potential.
