QUANTUM TUNNELING IN MEDIUMS WITH LINEAR AND NONLINEAR DISSIPATION

Authors: not saved
Abstract:

We have applied the method of integration of the Heisenberg equation of motion proposed by Bender and Dunne, and M. Kamella and M. Razavy to the potential V(q) = v q - µ q with linear and nonlinear dissipation. We concentrate our calculations on the evolution of basis set of Weyl Ordered Operators and calculate the mean position , velocity , the commutation relation [q, p], and the energy of particle. According to our results, the particle which is confined in the well at t= 0, has some oscillations before tunneling. If dissipation is lproportional to velocity it inhibits tunneling but when it is quadric in velocity it facilitates tunneling. Thus, we can continue our cdculation easily for every power of velocity

Tunneling with Dissipation in Open Quantum Systems

Based on the general form of the master equation for open quantum systems the tunneling is considered. Using the path integral technique a simple closed form expression for the tunneling rate through a parabolic barrier is obtained. The tunneling in the open quantum systems strongly depends on the coupling with environment. We found the cases when the dissipation prohibits tunneling through the...

Fluctuation-dissipation theorem and quantum tunneling with dissipation

We suggest to take the fluctuation-dissipation theorem of Callen and Welton as a basis to study quantum dissipative phenomena ( such as macroscopic quantum tunneling ) in a manner analogous to the Nambu-Goldstone theorem for spontaneous symmetry breakdown. It is shown that the essential physical contents of the Caldeira-Leggett model such as the suppression of quantum coherence by Ohmic dissipa...

Quantum tunneling with dissipation in smoothly joined parabolic potentials

This paper is devoted to the study of quantum dissipation in cluster decay phenomena in the frame of the Lindblad approach to quantum open systems. The tunneling of a metastable state across a piecewise quadratic potential is envisaged for two cases : one and two harmonic wells smoothly joined to an inverted parabola which simulates the barrier. The width and depth of the second harmonic oscill...

Deconfinement and dissipation in quantum Hall Josephson tunneling.

The zero-bias tunneling resonance in quantum Hall bilayer systems is investigated via numerical simulations of the classical two-dimensional XY model with a symmetry-breaking field. Disorder is included in the model and is shown to nucleate strings of overturned spins proliferated through the system, with unpaired vortices and antivortices at their end points. This string glass state supports l...

Fluctuation-dissipation theorem and quantum tunneling with dissipation at finite temperature

A reformulation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem of Callen and Welton is presented in such a manner that the basic idea of Feynman-Vernon and Caldeira -Leggett of using an infinite number of oscillators to simulate the dissipative medium is realized manifestly without actually introducing oscillators. If one assumes the existence of a well defined dissipative coefficient R(ω) which little...
