A quantum-mechanical system has normalised energy eigenstates and with non-degenerate energies and respectively. The observable has normalised eigenstates,
where is a positive real constant. Determine .
Initially, at time , the state of the system is . Write down an expression for , the state of the system with . What is the probability that a measurement of energy at time will yield ?
For the same initial state, determine the probability that a measurement of at time will yield and the probability that it will yield .
