| Abstract | We consider the problem of the dynamics of a Gaussian wave packet in a one-dimensional harmonic ocsillator interacting with a bath. This problem arises in many chemical and biochemical applications related to the dynamics of chemical reactions. We take the bath-oscillator interaction into account in the framework of the Redfield theory. We obtain closed expressions for Redfield-tensor elements, which allows finding the explicit time dependence of the average vibrational energy. We show that the energy loss rate is temperature-independent, is the same for all wave packets, and depends only on the spectral function of the bath. We determine the degree of coherence of the vibrational motion as the trace of the density-matrix projection on a coherently moving wave packet. We find an explicit expression for the initial coherence loss rate, which depends on the wave packet width and is directly proportional to the intensity of the interaction with the bath. The minimum coherence loss rate is observed for a “coherent” Gaussian wave packet whose width corresponds to the oscillator frequency. We calculate the limiting value of the degree of coherence for large times and show that it is independent of the structural characteristics of the bath and depends only on the parameters of the wave packet and on the temperature. It is possible that residual coherence can be preserved at low temperatures. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
