• TITLE: Temperature Dependent Motion of a Massive Quantum Particle

  AUTHORS: Jian-Ping Peng

  KEYWORDS: Thermodynamics; Internal Energy; Entropy Generation

  JOURNAL NAME: Journal of Modern Physics, Vol.3 No.7, July 18, 2012

  ABSTRACT: We report model calculations of the time-dependent internal energy and entropy for a single quasi-free massive quantum particle at a constant temperature. We show that the whole process started from a fully coherent quantum state to thermodynamic equilibrium can be understood, based on statistics of diffracted matter waves. As a result of thermal interaction between the particle and its surroundings, the motion of the particle shows new feature.
