Mapping the Wigner distribution function of the Morse oscillator into a semi-classical distribution function

The mapping of the Wigner distribution function (WDF) for a given bound-state onto a semiclassical distribution function (SDF) satisfying the Liouville equation introduced previously by us is applied to the ground state of the Morse oscillator. Here we give results showing that the SDF gets closer to the corresponding WDF as the number of levels of the Morse oscillator increases. We find that for a Morse oscillator with one level only, the agreement between the WDF and the mapped SDF is very poor but for a Morse oscillator of ten levels it becomes satisfactory.Comment: Revtex, 27 pages including 13 eps figure

Collisional Semiclassical Aproximations in Phase-Space Representation

The Gaussian Wave-Packet phase-space representation is used to show that the expansion in powers of $\hbar$ of the quantum Liouville propagator leads, in the zeroth order term, to results close to those obtained in the statistical quasiclassical method of Lee and Scully in the Weyl-Wigner picture. It is also verified that propagating the Wigner distribution along the classical trajectories the amount of error is less than that coming from propagating the Gaussian distribution along classical trajectories.Comment: 20 pages, REVTEX, no figures, 3 tables include

Three-body Faddeev Calculation for 11Li with Separable Potentials

The halo nucleus $^{11}$Li is treated as a three-body system consisting of an inert core of $^{9}$Li plus two valence neutrons. The Faddeev equations are solved using separable potentials to describe the two-body interactions, corresponding in the n-$^{9}$Li subsystem to a p$_{1/2}$ resonance plus a virtual s-wave state. The experimental $^{11}$Li energy is taken as input and the $^{9}$Li transverse momentum distribution in $^{11}$Li is studied.Comment: 6 pages, RevTeX, 1 figur
