Time in Quantum Mechanics
by Curt A. Moyer
Publisher: arXiv 2013
Number of pages: 39
Description:
The failure of conventional quantum theory to recognize time as an observable and to admit time operators is addressed. Instead of focusing on the existence of a time operator for a given Hamiltonian, we emphasize the role of the Hamiltonian as the generator of translations in time to construct time states.
