Storage of energy in confined quantum systems
Abstract
Description
Using the non-perturbative method of {\it dressed} states introduced in previous publications [N.P.Andion, A.P.C. Malbouisson and A. Mattos Neto, J.Phys.{\bf A34}, 3735, (2001); G. Flores-Hidalgo, A.P.C. Malbouisson, Y.W. Milla, Phys. Rev. A, {\bf 65}, 063314 (2002)], we study the evolution of a confined quantum mechanical system embedded in a {\it ohmic} environment. Our approach furnishes a theoretical mechanism to control inhibition of the decay of excited quantum systems in cavities, in both weak and strong coupling regimes.
