Abstract:Abstract. Due to the time dependence of the force, the energy of the ion may differ from the Hamiltonian. This problem can be solved, however, in an appropriate gauge. The result is used to evaluate time averaged observables assuming that the laser light (used to detect and cool the ion) causes Markovian dissipation of the energy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
