Abstract
This paper develops further the semi-classical theory of an harmonic oscillator acted on by a Gaussian white noise force discussed in (arXiv:1508.02379). Here I add to that theory the effects of Brownian damping (friction). Albeit semi-classical, the theory can be used to model quantum expectations and probabilities. I consider several examples.
