Caldeira-Leggett Model – Two different approaches for an ohmic environement
- Date: 24/11/2016
Room: 204
Speaker: Matteo Carlesso
Two different approaches of the well-known Caldeira Legget model will be presented and discussed. While one approach is widely investigated in litterature, the other one is the way I used to obtain the same master equation. It will be oulined how some usual approximation seems to be not strictly necessary.
