Analytical evaluation of the coefficients of the Hu-Paz-Zhang master equation: Ohmic spectral density, zero temperature, and consistency check

G. Homa, J. Z. Bernád, A. Csordás

We investigate the exact master equation of Hu, Paz, and Zhang for a quantum harmonic oscillator at zero temperature with a Lorentz-Drude type Ohmic spectral density. This master e…
