Coherent states sometimes look like squeezed states, and visa versa: The Paul trap
Michael Martin Nieto, D. Rodney Truax
Using the Paul Trap as a model, we point out that the same wave functions can be variously coherent or squeezed states, depending upon the system they are applied to.

Schrödinger equations with time-dependent P^2 and X^2 terms
Michael Martin Nieto, D. Rodney Truax
We present some general results for the time-dependent mass Hamiltonian problem with H=-{1/2}e^{-2ν}\partial_{xx} +h^{(2)}(t)e^{2ν}x^2. This Hamiltonian corresponds to a time-depen…
