dc.descriptionThe reflection time, during which a particle is in the classically forbidden region, is described by the trajectory representation for reflection by a semi-infinite rectangular barrier. The Schrödinger wave function has microstates for such reflection. The reflection time is a function of the microstate. For oblique reflection, the Goos-Hänchen displacement is also a function of the microstate. For a square well duct, we develop a proposed test where consistent overdetermination of the trajectory by a redundant set of observed constants of the motion would be beyond the Copenhagen interpretation.
