Mean field master equation for self-interacting baths: comparison with exact spin--spin-bath dynamics

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

A mean field approximation is employed to derive a master equation suitable for self-interacting baths and strong system-bath coupling. Solutions of the master equation are compared with exact solutions for a central spin interacting with a spin-bath.
