Moshinsky Functions, Resonances and Tunneling

  • Conference paper
Symmetries in Physics

Abstract

A brief review of the chief properties and applications of Moshinsky functions is given. Applications surveyed include diffraction in time, time-dependent perturbation theory, one-dimensional tunneling, the decay of a localized state, and resonance scattering.
