Abstract
We discuss the form of the wave-function of a state subjected to a scalar linear potential, focusing on quantum tunneling. We analyze the phases acquired by the evolved state and show that some are of a pure quantum mechanical origin. We propose a simple experimental scenario to measure one of these phases. We apply the evolution equations to re-analyze the Stern and Gerlach experiment and to demonstrate how to manipulate spin by employing constant electric fields.
