Abstract
We use the dynamical invariant method and two unitary transformations to
obtain the exact Schrodinger wave functions, psi(nmk), (r, t), for a
spinless charged particle in a time-dependent Penning trap. For the special case n = m = k = 0, we obtain the analytical expressions for the
uncertainties in terms of two c-number functions satisfying a
Milne-Pinney-like equation. We analyze the static and the time dependent cases. For the former, where B (t) = B(0)k and V (t) = V-0, we observe
that the Heisenberg and Robertson-Schrodinger uncertainty relations are
fulfilled and the behavior of the uncertainties Delta x, y and Delta
p(x), p(y), when B-0 changes indicates the occurrence of a squeezing phenomenon. For the later, where B (t) = (B-0(2) + B'cos(2) (vt))(1/2)k andV (t) = V-0 + V'Cos(2) (vt), we observe that Delta x, y oscillate in
time exhibiting a squeezing phenomenon. Relations among the
uncertainties, Shannon entropies and Fisher lengths were stablished. We
observe for both cases that the Shannon entropy in position, S-r, and in momentum, S-p, satisfy the relation S-r + S-p >= 3 (1 + ln pi), while
the Fisher lengths delta r and delta p exhibit a lower bound than the
uncertainties Delta r, p. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
