ONE DIMENSIONAL SCATTERING PROBLEM IN BOHMIAN QUANTUM MECHANICS
According to Standard Quantum Mechanics (SQM), known as the Copenhagen Interpretation, the complete description of a system of particles is provided by its wave function. However, in the de Broglie-Bohm theory of Bohmian Quantum Mechanics (BQM), the additional element which is introduced apart from the wave function is the particle position, conceived in the classical sense as pursuing a definite continuous track in space-time. In BQM formulation, depending on the configuration of the potential barrier and the energy of the packet, the particle trajectories have been shown to take distinct paths. We will consider several barrier heights and show that in a Bohmian interpretation of the problem, there is no such thing as Quantum Tunnelling.
