چکیده
It is shown that the vibrational wave packet relaxation of initially coherent (displaced) states as well as the quantum superposition of coherent states in heat bathes with the different spectral densities exhibit a number of peculiarities compared with the cases of linear phase-sensitive relaxation, quadratic relaxation, and relaxational dynamics described with the use of Zurek’s environmentally-induced pointer basis. A strong dependence of the relaxation rate on the position of the spectral density maximum of the bath is found. The differences can be used for the discrimination of the mechanisms of the molecule-environment interactions. PACS number(s): 82.29.Rp, 33.80.Be, 32.80.Bx, 31.70.Hq Typeset using REVTEX 1

The ion trap quantum computer proposed by Cirac and Zoller [Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 4091 (1995)] is analyzed for decoherence due to vibrations of the ions. An adiabatic approximation exploiting the vast difference between the frequencies of the optical intraionic transition and the vibrational modes is used to find the decoherence time at any temperature T . The scaling of this decoherence time wi...

We present a detailed numerical study of a chaotic classical system and its quantum counterpart. The system is a special case of a kicked rotor and for certain parameter values possesses cantori dividing chaotic regions of the classical phase space. We investigate the diffusion of particles through a cantorus; classical diffusion is observed but quantum diffusion is only significant when the cl...

We present an analytical study of the loss of quantum coherence at absolute zero. Our model consists of a harmonic oscillator coupled to an environment of harmonic oscillators at absolute zero. We find that for an Ohmic bath, the offdiagonal elements of the density matrix in the position representation decay as a power law in time at late times. This slow loss of coherence in the quantum domain...

Dynamic properties of closed three level laser systems are investigated. Two schemes of pumping Λ and V are considered. It is shown that the non-linear behavior of the photon number as a function of pump both near and far above threshold is crucially different for these two configurations. In particular, it is found that in the high pump regime laser can turn off in a phase-transition-like mann...
