The damping of the harmonic oscillator is studied in the framework of the Lindblad theory for open quantum systems. A generalization of the fundamental constraints on quantum mechanical diffusion coefficients which appear in the master equation for the damped quantum oscillator is presented; the Schrödinger, Heisenberg and Weyl-Wigner-Moyal representations of the Lindblad equation are given exp...

Phase-space representations are of increasing importance as a viable and successful means to study exponentially complex quantum many-body systems from first principles. This paper traces the background of these methods, starting from the early work of Wigner, Glauber and Sudarshan. We focus on modern phase-space approaches using non-classical phase-space representations. These lead to the Gaus...
متن کاملQuantum dynamics with stochastic gauge simulations
The general idea of a stochastic gauge representation is introduced and compared with more traditional phase-space expansions, like the Wigner expansion. Stochastic gauges can be used to obtain an infinite class of positive-definite stochastic time-evolution equations, equivalent to master equations, for many systems including quantum time evolution. The method is illustrated with a variety of ...
متن کاملThreshold behavior of a laser with nonorthogonal polarization modes
We investigate experimentally and theoretically the influence of the excess quantum noise in a laser on the laser’s input–output curve near threshold. As an experimental system we use a He–Xe gas laser with nonorthogonal polarization modes. We observe that the excess quantum noise is absent far below threshold and steadily builds up as threshold is approached. The excess noise is fully develope...
متن کاملQuantum noise in a laser with nonorthogonal polarization modes
We describe the quantum-noise behavior of a laser that has nonorthogonal polarization modes. The nonorthogonality of the modes leads to excess quantum noise. Theoretically, we derive the excess noise dynamics of the laser, including the saturation of the gain medium. Experimentally, we have measured the noise dynamics in the polarization, intensity and phase degrees of freedom of a 3.51-mm HeXe...
