Dissipation-induced enhancement of quantum fluctuations

We study a quantum harmonic oscillator linearly coupled through the position operator $\hat{q}$ to a first bath and through the momentum operator $\hat{p}$ to a second bath yielding an Ohmic–Drude dissipation. We analyse the oscillator’s fluctuations as a function of the ratio between the strength o...
