Manipulating decay rates by entanglement and the Zeno effect

Abstract

We analyse a class of quantum dynamical processes which may lead to the hindering of the decay of a non-stationary state through appropriate entanglement with an additional two-level system. In this case the process can be considered as a module whose iteration is related to dynamical implementations of the so called quantum Zeno effect.
