Dynamics of decoherence without dissipation in a squeezed thermal bath

TLDR
In this article, a generic open quantum system where the coupling between the system and its environment is of an energy-preserving quantum nondemolition (QND) type is studied.
Abstract
We study a generic open quantum system where the coupling between the system and its environment is of an energy-preserving quantum nondemolition (QND) type. We obtain the general master equation for the evolution of such a system under the influence of a squeezed thermal bath of harmonic oscillators. From the master equation it can be seen explicitly that the process involves decoherence or dephasing without any dissipation of energy. We work out the decoherence-causing term in the high- and zero-temperature limits and check that they match with known results for the case of a thermal bath. The decay of the coherence is quantified as well by the dynamics of the linear entropy of the system under various environmental conditions. We make a comparison of the quantum statistical properties between QND and dissipative types of evolution using a two-level atomic system and a harmonic oscillator.

TL;DR: In this article, the dynamics of entanglement in a two-qubit system interacting with a squeezed thermal bath via a dissipative system-reservoir interaction with the system and reservoir assumed to be in a separable initial state was studied by making use of concurrence as well as a recently introduced measure of mixed state entenglement via a probability density function.

Coherence in Spontaneous Radiation Processes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered a radiating gas as a single quantum-mechanical system, and the energy levels corresponding to certain correlations between individual molecules were described, where spontaneous emission of radiation in a transition between two such levels leads to the emission of coherent radiation.

The Theory of a general quantum system interacting with a linear dissipative system

TL;DR: In this paper, a formalism has been developed, using Feynman's space-time formulation of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics whereby the behavior of a system of interest, which is coupled to other external quantum systems, may be calculated in terms of its own variables only.
