Description:
Author(s): H. Friedman, D. A. Kessler, and E. Barkai This paper aims to extend the first-passage problem to quantum walks. Starting from the Schrödinger equation and applying projective measurements at fixed time intervals, the authors construct the statistics of first detection times for open and closed systems. The results are quite different from those for classical random walks, although some similarities remain. [Phys. Rev. E 95, 032141] Published Tue Mar 28, 2017
