Abstract
The quasiclassical analysis of the one-dimensional finite and infinite motion of spectrally narrow wavepackets is presented. It is shown tha t the wavepacket dynamics depends crucially on the type of excitation, below or above the classical transition point. The advantages of the temporal representation of the packet (PSI(x, t) at x = const. ) over the coordinate representation (PSI(x, t) at t = const.) are discussed.
