We prove an adiabatic theorem for the evolution of spectral data under a weak
additive perturbation in the context of a system without an intrinsic time
scale. For continuous functions of the unperturbed Hamiltonian the convergence
is in norm while for a larger class functions, including the spectral
projections associated to embedded eigenvalues, the convergence is in the
strong operator topology.Comment: 15 pages, no figure
