Recovering Classical Dynamics from Coupled Quantum Systems Through Continuous Measurement
We study the role of continuous measurement in the quantum to classical transition for a system with coupled internal ~spin! and external ~motional! degrees of freedom. Even when the measured motional degree of freedom can be treated classically, entanglement between spin and motion causes strong measurement back action on the quantum spin subsystem so that classical trajectories are not recove...
متن کاملCoupling Classical and Quantum Variables using Continuous Quantum Measurement Theory
We propose a system of equations to describe the interaction of a quasiclassical variable X with a set of quantum variables x that goes beyond the usual mean field approximation. The idea is to regard the quantum system as continuously and imprecisely measured by the classical system. The effective equations of motion for the classical system therefore consist of treating the quantum variable x...
متن کاملSemi-Classical Dynamics in Quantum Spin Systems
We consider two limiting regimes, the large-spin and the mean-field limit, for the dynamical evolution of quantum spin systems. We prove that, in these limits, the time evolution of a class of quantum spin systems is determined by a corresponding Hamiltonian dynamics of classical spins. This result can be viewed as a Egorov-type theorem. We extend our results to the thermodynamic limit of latti...
متن کاملContinuous quantum measurement and the emergence of classical chaos
We formulate the conditions under which the dynamics of a continuously measured quantum system becomes indistinguishable from that of the corresponding classical system. In particular, we demonstrate that even in a classically chaotic system the quantum state vector conditioned by the measurement remains localized and, under these conditions, follows a trajectory characterized by the classical ...
متن کاملQuantum-Classical Nonadiabatic Dynamics: Coupled- vs Independent-Trajectory Methods.
Trajectory-based mixed quantum-classical approaches to coupled electron-nuclear dynamics suffer from well-studied problems such as the lack of (or incorrect account for) decoherence in the trajectory surface hopping method and the inability of reproducing the spatial splitting of a nuclear wave packet in Ehrenfest-like dynamics. In the context of electronic nonadiabatic processes, these problem...
