    Quantum Chaos, Level spacing distr. in integrable system

    Hello all, For an undergraduate essay, I am studying the development of quantum chaos in a 1D spin 1/2 chain (my main source paper can be found here:http://scitation.aip.org/content/aapt/journal/ajp/80/3/10.1119/1.3671068). One of the main tools used to distinguish chaotic from non chaotic...

    What is the correlation between photon events in space and time?

    And two more questions: Is it correct to say that in the classical picture of light the intensity (of monochromatic light) corresponds to the amplitude of the light wave? Does the interpretation of E+ and E- as photon creator/annihilator imply that in reality a photon doesn't really travel but...

    What is the correlation between photon events in space and time?

    Thank you! That is very helpful. Some other questions: That makes sense I guess. Could you give a similar application of higher order coherences (ie. higher than 2th)? Okay that really helps, but I still don't see what then gn and Gn actually describe. They take photondetection events as...

    What is the correlation between photon events in space and time?

    Hey people! I'm studying the article "The Quantum Theory of Optical Coherence" by Glauber (see eg. http://prola.aps.org/pdf/PR/v130/i6/p2529_1), and I've a couple of questions. 1. Why are the arguments of E(+) and E(-) in equation 3.6 two different sets of coordinates? We obtained E(-) by...
