Quantum vs. Classical Spin: A Comparative Study of Dipolar Spin Dynamics and the Onset of Chaos

We investigate the spin dynamics of a dipole-coupled system by comparing a direct solution of the Schrodinger equation for quantum spins with simulations of classical spins. Although classical spins have long been used in microscopic spin dynamics simulations, we demonstrate that their results differ significantly from those of quantum spins. Using Free Induction Decay as a benchmark, we find that while the overall patterns are qualitatively similar, significant discrepancies emerge at both short and long timescales. We trace these differences to fundamental distinctions in the two descriptions.

Preserving unitarity for overlapping multichannel states: Breit-Wigner versus K matrix -- comparison, advantages and disadvantages

The K-matrix method is often used to describe overlapping resonances. It guarantees the unitarity of the scattering matrix but its parameters are not resonances masses and widths. It is also unclear how to separate resonant and background contributions and to describe background in terms of phase shifts. The Breit-Wigner (BW) approach operates with parameters having direct experimental meaning but a simple sum of the BW functions is not unitary. We show how to construct the unitary S-matrix by taking into account the interference of the BW functions. The method is simple and straightforward, background can be added to resonance amplitudes in the standard quantum mechanics form. In examples we give a comparison between the K-matrix and unitary BW-approaches.

The quantum mechanics correspondence principle for spin systems and its application for some magnetic resonance problems

Problems of interacting quantum magnetic moments become exponentially complex with increasing number of particles. As a result, classical equations are often used but the validity of reduction of a quantum problem to a classical problem should be justified. In this paper we formulate the correspondence principle, which shows that the classical equations of motion for a system of dipole interacting spins have identical form with the quantum equations. The classical simulations based on the correspondence principle for spin systems provide a practical tool to study different macroscopic spin physics phenomena. Three classical magnetic resonance problems in solids are considered as examples - free induction decay (FID), spin echo and the Pake doublet.
