Effects of a dissipative coupling to the momentum of a particle in a double well potential
Dominik Maile, Sabine Andergassen, Gianluca Rastelli
Double well potentials offer the possibility of coherent state preparation and therefore constitute important building blocks in the analysis of quantum information and quantum eng…
Quantum phase transition with dissipative frustration
Dominik Maile, Sabine Andergassen, Wolfgang Belzig +1
We study the quantum phase transition of the one-dimensional phase model in the presence of dissipative frustration, provided by an interaction of the system with the environment t…
Mechanical lattice instability and thermodynamical properties in classical solids
G. Rastelli, E. Cappelluti
In this paper we revisit the onset of the instability of the solid state in classical systems within self-consistent phonon theory (SCPT). Spanning the whole phase diagram versus v…
Surface instability and isotopic impurities in quantum solids
E. Cappelluti, G. Rastelli, S. Gaudio +1
In this paper we employ a self-consistent harmonic approximation to investigate surface melting and local melting close to quantum impurities in quantum solids. We show that surfac…
