Angular momentum and energy structure of the coherent state of a 2D isotropic harmonic oscillator
arXiv:quant-ph/9912013
Abstract
The angular momentum structure and energy structure of the coherent state of a 2D isotropic harmonic oscillator were investigated. Calculations showed that the average values of angular momentum and energy (except the zero point energy) of this nonspreading 2D wave packet are identical to those of the corresponding classical oscillator moving along a circular or an elliptic orbit.
