ABSTRACT

Plasma waves in a Fermi-degenerate quantum plasma are studied in the framework of the Vlasov-Poisson self-consistent-field theory. A complete time-dependent analytical solution of the initial-value problem is obtained for a multistream model both by stationary-wave and Laplace-transform methods. In the continuum limit, the excitation spectrum can be expressed by the imaginary part of the response function to the initial perturbations. The relaxation of plasma waves is discussed for one-dimensional systems with both Fermi and Maxwellian statistics. Apart from the usual exponential Landau damping, regimes of sub- and superexponential damping can be identified due to the phase relaxation of single-particle excitations. In addition, beat waves and echoes are discussed.

ABSTRACT

Exact radiation boundary conditions on the surface of a sphere are presented for the single-particle time-dependent Schrödinger equation with a localized interaction. With these boundary conditions, numerical computations of spatially unbounded outgoing wave solutions can be restricted to the finite volume of a sphere. The boundary conditions are expressed in terms of the free-particle Green's function for the outside region. The Green's function is analytically calculated by an expansion in spherical harmonics and by the method of Laplace transformation. For each harmonic number a discrete boundary condition between the function values at adjacent radial grid points is obtained. The numerical method is applied to quantum tunneling through a spherically symmetric potential barrier with different angular-momentum quantum numbers l . Calculations for l=0 are compared to exact theoretical results.
