description Quantum characteristics of a mass-accreting oscillator are investigated using the invariant operator theory, which is a rigorous mathematical tool for unfolding quantum theory for time-dependent Hamiltonian systems. In particular, the quantum energy of the system is analyzed in detail and compared to the classical one. We focus on two particular cases; one is a linearly mass-accreting oscillator and the other is an exponentially mass-accreting one. It is confirmed that the quantum energy is in agreement with the classical one in the limit <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mo>ℏ</mo><mo>→</mo><mn>0</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>. We showed that not only the classical but also the quantum energy oscillates with time. It is carefully analyzed why the energy oscillates with time, and a reasonable explanation for that outcome is given.
