Resonances, Gamow vectors and time asymmetric quantum theory

  • 1. Physics Department. The University of Texas. Austin TX 78712 (United States)

Description

Decaying states can be represented by Gamow vectors with an exponential, asymmetric time evolution. This asymmetric evolution is a manifestation of irreversibility on the micro physical level. The Rigged Hilbert Space provides a mathematical theory. (Author)
