Quantum boomerang effect in systems without time reversal symmetry
arXiv:2203.11019 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.105.L180202
Abstract
In an Anderson localized system, a quantum particle with a nonzero initial velocity returns, on average, to its origin. This recently discovered behavior is known as the quantum boomerang effect. Time reversal invariance was initially thought to be a necessary condition for the existence of this phenomenon. We theoretically analyze the impact of the symmetry breaking on the phenomenon using a one-dimensional system with a spin-orbit coupling and show that the time reversal invariance is not necessary for the boomerang effect to occur.
