Semiclassical treatment of quantum systems embedded in a bath

Christoph-Marian Goletz

A molecular I-I system embedded in a bath is observed using the Caldeira-Leggett model with a finite number of bath modes. The treatment is done within a semiclassical hybrid many particle approach. In particular we focus on decoherence depending on the system-bath coupling strength.
