Continuum analogs of excited-state quantum phase transitions

Continuum analogs of excited-state quantum phase transitions

Following our work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 020401 (2020)], we discuss a semiclassical description of one-dimensional quantum tunneling through multibarrier potentials in terms of complex time. We start by defining a complex-extended continuum level density of unbound systems and show its relation to a complex time shift of the transmitted …
