- Abstract: We put forward a model that describes a decaying and evanescent point source
of non-interacting quantum waves in 1D. This point-source assumption allows for
a simple description that captures the essential aspects of the dynamics of a
wave traveling through a classically forbidden region without the need to
specify the details of the inner region. The dynamics of the resulting wave is
examined and several characteristic times are identified. One of them
generalizes the tunneling time-scale introduced by B\"uttiker and Landauer and
it characterizes the arrival of the maximum of the wave function. Diffraction
in time and deviations from exponential decay are also studied. Here we show
that there exists an optimal injection frequency and detection point for the
observation of these two quantum phenomena.

We have analyzed the motion of a structured matter wave in the presence of a constant magnetic field and under the influence of a time-dependent external force.
From the point of view of the quantum interferometry of matter waves, and also non-relativistic quantum electron microscopy, the results obtained here are important and more reliable than the approximate methods.

The shape of the wave varies periodically as a manifestation of its peculiar properties of nonstaticity.
The mechanism underlying the abnormal features of nonstatic light waves demonstrated here can be interpreted by the rotation of the squeezed-shape contour of the Wigner distribution function in phase space.

We show that the Zitterbewegung effect manifests itself as a series of quantum beats of the particle density in the long-time limit.
We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront.
The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
