Abstract

A quantum mechanical particle which moves in a symmetric double-well potential, and whose interaction with the environment is described in the classical regime by a phenomenological friction coefficient $\ensuremath{\eta}$, is considered. It is shown that, provided $\frac{\ensuremath{\eta}{{q}_{0}}^{2}}{\ensuremath{\hbar}}$ exceeds a critical value of order unity ($\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}{q}_{0}$ are the locations of the potential minima), the mean rate of tunneling between the degenerate minima decreases with temperature, leading at $T=0$ to spontaneous symmetry breaking.

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.
