Energy and coherence loss rates in a one-dimensional vibrational system interacting with a bath

Abstract: We consider the problem of the dynamics of a Gaussian wave packet in a one-dimensional harmonic ocsillator interacting with a bath. This problem arises in many chemical and biochemical applications related to the dynamics of chemical reactions. We take the bath-oscillator interaction into account in the framework of the Redfield theory. We obtain closed expressions for Redfield-tensor elements, which allows finding the explicit time dependence of the average vibrational energy. We show that the energy loss rat… Show more

“…This paper continues previous papers aimed at analytically describing the dissipative dynamics in the harmonic approximation [12]. In [13], we obtained closed expressions for the Redfield tensor elements, which allowed finding the explicit time dependence of the mean oscillation energy. Here, we generalize this result to a whole class of operators for which we find the exponential temporal damping of means and find the corresponding relaxation times.…”

“…This approach can be used in many problems that admit simple approximations (the harmonic approximation for describing the vibrational system states, a bilinear form of the system-bath interaction, etc.) and analytically solvable problems [15]. We also note that in modeling macromolecular system dynamics, we can always subdivide it into systems that admit simple approximations.…”
