Understanding multiple timescales in quantum dissipative dynamics: Insights from quantum trajectories

Open quantum systems with nearly degenerate energy levels have been shown to exhibit long-lived metastable states in the approach to equilibrium, even when modelled with certain Lindblad-form quantum master equations. This is a result of dramatic separation of timescales due to differences between L...
