operator describing the dissipation and/or decoherence of open system quantum dynamics in a Lindblad equation

Also known as Lindblad Operator

Description

Quantum jump operators can be used - together with quantum damping rates - to describe the dissipation and/or decoherence of the quantum dynamics in a Lindblad equation (for open quantum systems).

Defining Formula: ${\hat{C}}_{j,k}\equiv \sqrt{{\Gamma }_{k\to k}}|j⟩⟨k|$

$\Gamma$ symbol represents quantum damping rate

$\hat{C}$ symbol represents jump operator
