Then, the quantization of this system is carried out using the operator $\\hat p$, for the Hamiltonian, and the operator $\\hat v$ for the constant of motion. We find that the result of both quantizations brings about different quantum dynamics.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-09-27T12:44:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "harmonic oscillator", "variable mass", "hamiltonian", "consistent approach", "quantum dynamics" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
