Spin dependent observable effect for free particles using the arrival
time distribution
Md. Manirul Ali, A. S. Majumdar, D. Home, S. Sengupta
abstract: The mean arrival time of free particles is computed using the quantum
probability current. This is uniquely determined in the non-relativistic limit
of Dirac equation, although the Schroedinger probability current has an
inherent non-uniqueness. Since the Dirac probability current involves a
spin-dependent term, an arrival time distribution based on the probability
current shows an observable spin-dependent effect, even for free particles.
This arises essentially from relativistic quantum dynamics, but persists even
in the non-relativistic regime.
