References for generalized canonical commutation relations

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on finding references for articles that explore generalized canonical commutation relations, specifically the relation ##[x,p]=ic\hbar## where ##c## is a real constant. The user, Ssnow, seeks literature that addresses this variation, as most existing literature typically uses the standard relation ##[x,p]=i\hbar## with units where ##\hbar=1##. Participants in the forum highlight the scarcity of resources specifically addressing the generalized form with a constant other than one.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of quantum mechanics and canonical commutation relations
  • Familiarity with the notation and implications of ##\hbar## in quantum physics
  • Knowledge of literature search techniques in academic physics
  • Basic grasp of theoretical physics concepts related to constants in quantum equations
NEXT STEPS
  • Research articles on generalized canonical commutation relations in quantum mechanics
  • Explore literature that discusses the implications of using different constants in quantum equations
  • Investigate the significance of units in quantum mechanics, particularly the use of ##\hbar=1##
  • Look for advanced textbooks or papers that delve into the mathematical foundations of quantum mechanics
USEFUL FOR

Physicists, researchers in quantum mechanics, and students seeking to understand advanced concepts in canonical commutation relations and their variations.

Hi to all, I ask if somebody of the Physics community know good references for article where the author works with generalized canonical commutation relations ( I mean that the author works with ##[x,p]=ic\hbar## with ##c## a real constant instead of ##[x,p]=i\hbar##).
Thank you for the answers,
Ssnow

There is a lot of literature with ##c=1/\hbar##, they usually say that they work in units ##\hbar=1##. o0)
