| dc.description | A closed expression for the density operator of the damped harmonic oscillator is extracted from the master equation based on the Lindblad theory for open quantum systems. The entropy and effective temperature of the system are subsequently calculated and their temporal behaviour is surveyed by showing how these quantities relax to their equilibrium values. The entropy for a state characterized by a Wigner distribution function which is Gaussian in form is found to depend only on the variance of the distribution function. | |
