In this work, we study the quantum tunnel effect through a potential barrier within a semiclassical formulation of quantum mechanics based on expectation values of configuration variables and quantum dispersions as dynamical variables. The evolution of the system is given in terms of a dynamical system for which we are able to determine numerical effective trajectories for individual particles, similar to the Bohmian description of quantum mechanics. We obtain a complete description of the possible trajectories of the system, finding semiclassical reflected, tunneled and confined paths due to the appearance of an effective time-dependent potential.

We study the use of a time-dependent potential barrier to control quantum wave packets, in a discretization of the Schroedinger equation. We consider computational issues in solving for a control which steers an initial single peak wave packet to a terminal double peak wave packet.
