what is the result of Fourier transformation of functional theta [Heaviside] function?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Is it not the case -

\int_{-\infty}^\infty}\theta (a)e^{ikx}dx = \int_{a}^{\infty}e^{ikx}dx

what you have written is Fourier transforamtion of the "usual" theta function.
i would like to know how to transform theta function which in arguments have other function s [i.e. functional theta function].
 
True. Did you know there is a math area in the PF ? Just scroll the main page down.

Thread 'Quantum behaviour of an electron around a positively charged sphere'

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
