On the harmonic oscillator with nonzero periodic mass

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento D

Summary

Following previous papers of Leach, and Wille and Vennik, we consider various new expressions for the nonvanishing periodic mass parameter of the time-dependent harmonic oscillator in a Pérot-Fabry cavity in contact with an atomic reservior.
