Classical harmonic oscillator Green's functions
A recent paper (Modeling heat transport in crystals and glasses
from a unified lattice-dynamical approach) derived expressions for thermal conductivity in a system of harmonic oscillators that decay ...

Phase space harmonic oscillator area and probability
I want to find the probability of finding an oscillator between $x$ and $x+dx$. I calculated the volume $\frac{8\pi EdE}{\omega^2}$ enclosed in the phase space for the oscillator with energy between $...

Energy of harmonic oscillators
I've calculated the energy of a classical harmonic oscillator (HO) as:
\begin{align*}
\overline E = \overline{E_K} + \overline{E_P}
= \frac{\overline{p^2}}{2m} + \frac{k\overline{x^2}}{2}
= \frac{...
