Excerpt from The Scattering Operator in Quantum Mechanics<br/><br/>This statement is essentially the adiabatic theorem for the continuous spectrum which can be worded as follows: When a perturbation is switched on infinitely slowly, a superposition of eigenstates of the unperturbed Hamiltonian in the infinite past goes over into the identical superposition of corresponding eigenstates of the total Hamiltonian at finite times....

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the nature of quantum mechanics, offering a detailed examination of the scattering operator. The author provides a comprehensive exploration of the topic, beginning with a foundational overview and progressing to more advanced concepts. Through the use of illustrative examples and in-depth analysis, the author unravels the theoretical underpinnings of the subject. The book situates the scattering operator within the broader context of quantum mechanics, exploring its relationship to other formalisms and highlighting its significance in understanding scattering phenomena. It presents a rigorous treatment of the variational principles associated with the scattering operator, providing a framework for approximating solutions to complex scattering problems. The author meticulously examines the concept of transition probabilities per unit time, elucidating how these probabilities can be used to describe the evolution of quantum systems. By connecting the scattering operator to the time-independent formalism, the author provides a comprehensive understanding of the subject from multiple perspectives. Ultimately, this book serves as an invaluable resource for physicists, mathematicians, and researchers seeking to deepen their knowledge of quantum scattering theory. Its insights contribute to a more profound understanding of the fundamental principles governing the behavior of quantum systems.
