Quantum dynamics in a time-dependent hard-wall spherical trap

Abstract: Exact solution of the Schrödinger equation is given for a particle inside a hard sphere whose wall is moving with a constant velocity. Numerical computations are presented for both contracting and expanding spheres. The propagator is constructed and compared with the propagator of a particle in an infinite square well with one wall in uniform motion.

“…Figure 2 represents trajectories for particle in a spherical trap. Here, particle initially is in the ground state u 010 (r, θ, φ) = 2/a sin(πr/a)Y 00 (Ω)/r which corresponds to a particle in a 1D square box [5].…”

“…Several other works appeared, dealing with specific box shapes [44,45], aimed at giving proper mathematical treatment of the Schrödinger problem in the presence of moving boundaries [46], and exploring the raise of correlations between different particles confined in the same time-dependent potential [47]. Very recently, some works reporting on the numerical resolution of the dynamics of a particle confined in a one-dimensional box with moving walls has appeared [48,49].…”

“…Over the decade, many papers appeared dedicated to the problem of quantum systems with boundaries. Several works are devoted to the problem of particles confined in a box, sometimes with moving walls [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] or specific shapes [8,9]. The confinement means the restriction on the motion of randomly moving particles, e.g.…”
