Abstract
We show how the product of the radial position and momentum uncertainties can be obtained analytically for the infinite circular well potential. Some interesting features are found. First, the uncertainty Îr increases with the radius R and the quantum number n, the n-th root of the Bessel function. The variation of the Îr is almost independent of the quantum number n for n>4 and it will arrive to a constant for a large n, say n>4. Second, we find that the relative dispersion Îr/ãrã is independent of the radius R. Moreover, the relative dispersion increases with the quantum number n but decreases with the azimuthal quantum number m. Third, the momentum uncertainty Îp decreases with the radius R and increases with the quantum numbers m>1 and n. Fourth, the product ÎrÎpr of the position-momentum uncertainty relations is independent of the radius R and increases with the quantum numbers m and n. Finally, we present the analytical expression for the Fisher entropy. Notice that the Fisher entropy decreases with the radius R and it increases with the quantum numbers m>0 and n. Also, we find that the Cramer-Rao uncertainty relation is satisfied and it increases with the quantum numbers m>0 and n, too.
