1303.6181 (Nikolay Chuprikov)

What is wrong in the current models of tunneling    [PDF]

Nikolay Chuprikov
In this paper we show that the conventional quantum-mechanical model of a non-resonant tunneling -- a subprocess of a one-dimensional completed scattering (OCS) -- is non-complete. It does not allow tracing the tunneling dynamics at all stages of scattering, what makes impossible a correct resolution of the tunneling time problem, compatible with the (macro-)causality principle. As is shown, all timekeeping procedures to underlie the tunneling-time concepts and experiments presented in the tunneling time literature (TTL) fill this gap in the current description of the tunneling dynamics by 'self-evident' assumptions which are erroneous on closer inspection. We present the alternative model of the OCS, which allows tracing the tunneling dynamics at all stages of scattering and, as a consequence, is free from those paradoxes that flood the current TTL.
