Cat States and Single Runs for the Damped Harmonic Oscillator
arXiv:gr-qc/9407001 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.51.136
Abstract
We discuss the fate of initial states of the cat type for the damped harmonic oscillator, mostly employing a linear version of the stochastic Schrödinger equation. We also comment on how such cat states might be prepared and on the relation of single realizations of the noise to single runs of experiments.
