摘要
In this article,we apply the Generalized Uncertainty Principle(GUP),which is consistent with quantum gravity theories to an elementary particle in a finite potential well,and study the quantum behavior in this system.The generalized Hamiltonian contains two additional terms,which are proportional to αp^3(the result of the maximum momentum assumption) and α~2p^4(the result of the minimum length assumption),where α ~ 1/M_(PIC) is the GUP parameter.On the basis of the work by Ali et al.,we solve the generalized Schrodinger equation which is extended to include the α~2 correction term,and find that the length L of the finite potential well must be quantized.Then a generalization to the double-square-well potential is discussed.The result shows that all the measurable lengths especially the distance between the two potential wells are quantized in units of α_0l_(PI) in GUP scenario.
In this article, we apply the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP), which is consistent with quantum gravity theories to an elementary particle in a finite potential well, and study the quantum behavior in this system. The generalized Hamiltonian contains two additional terms, which are proportional to ap3 (the result of the maximum momentum assumption) and a2p4 (the result of the minimum length assumption), where a - 1/MpIc is the GUP parameter. On the basis of the work by Ali et al., we solve the generaiized Schrodinger equation which is extended to include the a2 correction term, and find that the length L of the finite potentiai well must be quantized. Then a generalization to the double-square-well potential is discussed. The result shows that all the measurable lengths especially the distance between the two potential wells are quantized in units of aolp1 in GUP scenario.
