A beam of particles is prepared in a momentum eigenstate 0 p09. The beam is directed to a shutter that is open for a finite time t. a) Find the wave function of the system immediately after passing through the shutter. b) Find the momentum probability distribution of the beam after the shutter

NOTE: i know the answer of this problems but in the solution manual the wave function is written in which a tern d is introduced i dont know how we replace it with 2pih.so plz tell me that how the wavefunction is wriiten with 1/sqrt d.

this is question no 3 of chp 6 book by david machentyre of quantum mechanics

i have asked how the state function is written i cant understand it plz explain how the function is wrtten

Newton’s laws of motion, such as trajectory and momentum, do not apply to subatomic particles as they do to larger objects such as baseballs. Research how subatomic particles (protons, neutrons, and electrons) behave and compare their behavior to the behavior of macroscopic particles that are governed by classical Newtonian physics. ·        How does the quantum, subatomic world differ from the world we can see and touch around us? ·        Specifically, do the same laws of classical physics for such things...

A physicist has developed a device that generates a beam of alpha particles (each of which is a helium nucleus, consisting of two protons, two neutrons, and no electrons). The device ejects a steady stream of 4910 alpha particles per second. You are testing different shielding materials for a test chamber that will house the alpha particle generator. You prepare a sheet of one potential material in an electrically neutral state, mount it on a perfectly insulating stand, and fire...
