“…U denotes an interaction or an external potential, and c is the dissipation rate (see Equation 26 for the Schrödinger equation and the Hamiltonian for the Caldirola-Kanai model). Taking advantage of its simplicity, the Caldirola-Kanai model has been applied to various dissipative quantum phenomena, including damping of electromagnetic fields in a plasma medium [14], dissipative quantum tunneling in low-energy nuclear fusion reactions [15], dynamics of a damped charged oscillator in the presence of the Aharanov-Bohm effect [16], and so on. While the Caldirola-Kanai model has usually been applied to a singleparticle motion regarding U as an external potential as in the original setting [12,13], we can also consider the dynamics of interacting quantum particles under the dissipation regarding U as inter-particle interactions.…”
