An ideal projective measurement yielding the antisymmetric state prepares that state at t1. Starting from it, the probability of reaching the symmetric state after an additional interval s is again sin2((E2−E1)s/(2ℏ)). At the full recurrence interval found above,The full-period propagator is proportional to the identity on the two-dimensional subspace, so it returns the antisymmetric state to itself, not to its orthogonal partner. The result assumes the stated time-independent evolution continues after the measurement.
P(+ at t1+τ∣− at t1)=sin2π=0.
