A wave-function Monte Carlo method for simulating conditional master equations
arXiv:0906.4723 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.81.042106
Abstract
Wave-function Monte Carlo methods are an important tool for simulating quantum systems, but the standard method cannot be used to simulate decoherence in continuously measured systems. Here we present a new Monte Carlo method for such systems. This was used to perform the simulations of a continuously measured nano-resonator in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 057208 (2009)].
