We propose a Fresnel stochastic white noise framework to analyze the nature of the Feynman paths entering on the Feynman path integral expression for the Feynman propagator of aparticle quantum mechanically moving under an external electromagnetic time independent potential

We analyze the problem of one dimensional quantum particle falling in a constant gravitational field, also known as the {\it bouncing ball}, employing a semiclassical approach known as momentous effective quantum mechanics. In this formalism the quantum evolution is described through a dynamical system of infinite dimension for the position, the momentum and all dispersions. Usually the system is truncated to have a finite dimensional one, however, in this case equations of motion decouple and the system can be solved. For a specific set of initial conditions we find that the time dependent dispersion in position is always around the classical trajectory., Comment: 1 figure

The exact exponential Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation operator applicable for a particle with an arbitrary spin is derived. It can be successfully utilized for verifying any Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation method based on the exponential operator. When a verified method is relativistic, the relativistic exponential operator should be expanded in the semirelativistic power series. The use of the obtained exponential operator for a derivation of the Foldy-Wouthuysen Hamiltonian makes it possible to check the validity of any other method of the Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation, while this possibility may need a greater computational effort., Comment: 14 pages, final version
