In the present communication we consider a time dependent ion-field interaction. Here we discuss the interaction between a single trapped ion and two fields taking into account the coupling parameter to be time dependent and allowing for amplitude modulation of the laser field radiating the trapped ion. At exact resonances the analytic solution for the Heisenberg equations of motion is obtained. We examine the effect of the velocity and the acceleration on the Rabi oscillations by studying the second order correlation function. The phenomenon of squeezing for single and two fields cases is considered. The cross correlation between the fields is discussed.

We derive the retarded nonrelativistic Green's function for a Schrödinger electron confined to a plane and subject to a parabolic saddle potential and an electric field having arbitrary time dependence and orientation on the plane. This derivation is carried out using Heisenberg equations of motion for position and momentum operators, following an earlier analysis of Schwinger, to obtain the retarded Green's function in closed form, as an explicit function of position and time variables.

A systematic approach to integrate the Heisenberg equations of motion is proposed by using the Weyl-ordered polynomials. The solutions of the Heisenberg equations of motion, i.e. P(t) and Q(t), are expanded as a sum over the Weyl-ordered polynomials Tm,n(P(t),Q(t)) at time t = 0. The coefficients of the expansions satisfy two sets of first-order ordinary differential equations resulting from the Heisenberg equations of motion for time-independent systems. This general approach for time-independent systems is also tractable in obtaining the adiabatic invariants of the time-dependent systems. In this paper, interest is mainly focused on the formal aspect of the approach.

AbstractFor a prototype quadratic Hamiltonian describing a driven, dissipative system, exact matrix elements of the reduced density matrix are obtained from a generating function in terms of the normal characteristic functions. The approach is based on the Heisenberg equations of motion and operator calculus. The special and limiting cases are discussed.

Interactions of a non-holonomic type are fundamentally different from interactions which can be treated as part of the Hamiltonian of a system. They usually lead to constraints which do not commute with the Hamiltonian, and cause important alterations in the development of a state vector. This paper deals with the Heisenberg equations of motion by analogy with classical dynamics using the Poisson bracket formalism of a previous paper (Eden 1951). The Schrödinger equation is investigated in co-ordinate representation, and it is shown that the wave function will have a non-integrabie phase factor or quasi phase. The quasi phase leads to an indefiniteness in the wave function, but does not violate the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics nor lead to any ambiguity in the physical interpretation of the theory. The relation between the Schrödinger and the Heisenberg equations shows that the Schrödinger treatment is also consistent with the classical analogue. If there is a given initial probability that the non-holonomic system has co-ordinates q (0) r , then there will be the same probability that the wave function in the subsequent motion will be zero except in a certain region of co-ordinate space. This region is the part of co-ordinate space which is accessible in the classical theory from the point q (0) r .
