Journal ArticleDOI
Classical and quantum mechanics of the damped harmonic oscillator
TL;DR: The relation between various treatments of the classical linearly damped harmonic oscillator and its quantization is investigated in this paper, where it is shown how imposing a restriction on the classical trajectories in order to connect the Hamiltonian with the energy leads to the time-independent Bateman-Morse-Feshbach-Bopp Hamiltonian.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantization of the linearly damped harmonic oscillator
TL;DR: In this article, a novel theory for the formal canonical quantization of classically dissipating systems is presented, which is the starting point for a detailed discussion of the quantum statistical aspects of the simple linearly damped harmonic oscillator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Noninteracting-blip approximation for a two-level system coupled to a heat bath
TL;DR: A very simple yet novel derivation is presented of the dynamics of the dissipative two-state system in the ``noninteracting-blip approximation'' using the LaSalle inequality.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Quantization of Dissipative Systems in the Lagrange-Hamilton Formalism
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the quantization of dissipative systems in the Lagrange-Hamilton formalism and showed that the quantum information that can be obtained about the classical dissipation may be expressed in terms of an anti-commutator.
Journal ArticleDOI
A fundamental constraint on quantum mechanical diffusion coefficients

TL;DR: In this paper, a general quantum mechanical master equation for the damped oscillator, which can be represented as a phase space Fokker-Planck equation for Wigner function, is investigated with respect to the uncertainty principle.
