(2.1) (20 points) A spin 1/2 particle is in an eigenstate of Sy with eigenvalue h/2 at the initial time t = 0. At that time, it is placed in a magnetic induction B = B2, and it is then allowed to precess in that induction for the time T. Then, at that instant T, B is instantaneously rotated from the z to the y direction, becoming B = Bį. After another identical time interval T occurs, a measurement of...

1. In this problem, we are going to look at a three-level system. A spin-1 particld is placed in a constant magnetic field along the a-direction with strength B,. The spin-1 particle İs initialized in a z-eigenstate with positive eigenvalue h, ie, the i 1,m 1) state.

1. Consider a particle of mass m in an infinite square well with potential energy 0 for 0 Sz S a oo otherwise V (x) For simplicity, we may take the 'universe' here to be the region of 0 S z S a, which is where the wave function is nontrivial. Consequently, we may express stationary state n as where En is the associated mechanical energy. It can be shown that () a/2 and (p:)0 for stationary state n. (a)...
