Quantum Dynamics of Tunneling between Superconductors

Open access
Ambegaokar, Vinay, Eckern, Ulrich, Schön, Gerd·1982·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

A functional-integral formulation is used to treat the quantum dynamics of a microscopic model of a Josephson junction, including the dissipative effects of quasiparticle tunneling. The calculation is carried to a point where it makes contact with, and therefore substantiates, recent work by Caldeira and Leggett in which the system is treated by analogy with the quantum Brownian motion of a massive particle coupled to a phenomenological heat bath.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
