摘要

We employ a dressed-state approach to perform a study on the behavior of the uncertainty principle for a system in a heated cavity. We find, in a small cavity for a given temperature, an oscillatory behavior of the momentum-coordinate product (Delta p) (Delta q), which attains periodically finite absolute minimum (maximum) values, no matter how large the elapsed time is. This behavior is in sharp contrast to what happens in free space, where the product (Delta p) (Delta q) tends asymptotically, for each temperature, to a constant value, independent of time.
