Abstract

We present a formalism for treating one-dimensional problems in quaternionic quantum mechanics. As an example, we derive an explicit form for the T matrix for scattering from a square (quaternionic) barrier, and use this result to calculate the transmission and reflection coefficients. We show that the qualitative form of these coefficients is the same as in complex quantum mechanics, even when the barrier has a nonzero value for the quaternionic components of the potential.
