Quantum description of classical apparatus: Zeno effect and decoherence
S. A. Gurvitz
We study the measurement process by treating classical detectors entirely quantum mechanically. As a generic model we use a point-contact detector coupled to an electron in a quant…
Formation and Dynamics of a Schrödinger-Cat State in Continuous Quantum Measurement
G. P. Berman, F. Borgonovi, G. Chapline +5
We consider the process of a single-spin measurement using magnetic resonance force microscopy (MRFM) as an example of a truly continuous measurement in quantum mechanics. This tec…
Dephasing and collapse in continuous measurement of a single system
S. A. Gurvitz
We show that long standing debates on the collapse and the role of the observer in quantum mechanics can be resolved experimentally via a nondistructive continuous monitoring of a…
Quantum transport in mesoscopic systems and the measurement problem
S. A. Gurvitz
We study noninvasive measurement of stationary currents in mesoscopic systems. It is shown that the measurement process is fully described by the Schrödinger equation without any a…
