Crossover from coherent to incoherent dynamics in damped quantum systems

arXiv:cond-mat/9702115 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.55.R3809

Abstract

The destruction of quantum coherence by environmental influences is investigated taking the damped harmonic oscillator and the dissipative two-state system as prototypical examples. It is shown that the location of the coherent-incoherent transition depends to a large degree on the dynamical quantity under consideration.
