Abstract

Language:

In this continuation paper, we address the problem of tunneling and demonstrate how it can be understood within a classical interpretation of quantum mechanics. The goal is to establish that rigorously, the tunnel effect does not exist as traditionally conceived. The methodology involves an analysis of standard quantum mechanical models, particularly those employing square potentials, and contrasts them with classical expectations. We argue that the common conceptualization of tunneling results from a misinterpretation of probability densities associated with quantum formalism. Specifically, the existence of particles with high momentum values, even if statistically improbable, leads to the emergent phenomena typically deemed as tunneling. This paper outlines the notion that what is labeled as 'tunneling' lacks substance in the classical framework, thereby advocating for a reassessment of this effect. Our findings suggest that the term 'tunnel effect' may be misleading and should be reconsidered in light of our classical interpretation of quantum phenomena.
