Information Transfer in Quantum Mechanics
Abstract
This paper deals with the most elementary information transmission in Quantum Mechanics. A simple quantum mechanical system under Coulomb-type potential is investigated. Like the classical case, a deep relation between the potential energy and the rate of information transfer is established for quantum-mechanical situation. The corresponding equation is presented. The article shows the circumstance for the free particle, too.
