### An electron is subjected to an electromagnetic field using the canonical equations solve

So I was given the following vector field: $\vec{A}(t)=\{A_{0x}cos(\omega t + \phi_x), A_{0y}cos(\omega t + \phi_y), A_{0z}cos(\omega t + \phi_z)\}$ Where the amplitudes $A_{0i}$ and phase shifts ...

### moment of tennis racket & volley

I've been looking for the relation between moment of a tennis racket and its maneuverability. If I define maneuverability as the easiness to get in position for quick reaction strokes like volleys and ...

### Commutating Annihilators with a beamsplitter

I am reading Nielsen and Chuang on P. 291, for anyone interested in the origin of my question. Given an annihilator $a$ and its corresponding creator $a^\dagger$ such that $[a,a^\dagger] = 1$ and ...

### In what environments can a dipolariton form?

In what environments can a dipolariton form? The article in Science in which it is introduced discusses it in the context of an optical cavity in a semiconductor. Can this quasiparticle occur ...

### What characterizations are available for two-photon Bell state light sources?

It is often technologically important to know how photon statistics change over time when a light source is turned on. A light source that comes to full intensity/visibility in a nanosecond after it ...

### Phonon vectors and characteristic length interpretation

Basically I have a set of vectors of unit length, $\{\nu_i\}$, describing the movement of phonons (all orthogonal to each other), $\{\omega_i\}$. Lets say I only have two atoms, $m_1$ and $m_2$. In ...

### shouldn't we add the oscillating terms into Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization formula

shouldn't be the quantization formula (in one dimension) equal to $N_{smooth}(E)+N_{osc}(E) = \oint_{C}p.dq$ ?? where the Oscillating term is just the correction from Gutzwiller trace formula or a ...

### Does it make sense to speak of amplitudes of finite closed boundaries in QFT?

A example of amplitude in Relativistic Quantum Mechanics or specifically in QFT is the amplitude of a field configuration on a space-like hyper-surface of space-time to "lead" to another field ...

### Is there analysis library for stress-strain data?

I have three column data that has time-displacement-force from 1D tensile/compression test. Now I would like to get the standard mechanical properties of the material, like Young modulus, yield ...

### How to derive a multi-reflection echo from a given single-reflection “trace”

Consider a one-dimensional semi-bounded "ray" (or thin "cylinder") of stratum (or just any homogeneous substance) which has several "features" along it's length (say, thin films). Consider a wave that ...

### What is a boundary condition for capacitors/dielectrics?

I am extremely confused about what boundary conditions are. One minute ago I was solving easy capacitor questions and the next minute I am being asked boundary condition questions and there is no such ...

### Physics for taffy pulling?

I am creating a simulation and am interested in pulling stretchy things and when they break, like taffy. I imagine this is a bit tougher then a simple equation like gravity, but I have no idea. Is ...

### The structure of space-time

I came across this paper recently called The Small Scale Structure of Spacetime and the following idea occured to me: To uninformed humans the universe appears Euclidean but we know from GR that on a ...
