Within the B\"{u}ttiker dephasing model, the backscattering in the dephasing process is eliminated by setting a proper boundary condition. Explicit expression is carried out for the effective total tunneling probability in the presence of…

We consider two two-level systems (TLSs) coupled to the vacuum of guided modes confined in a rectangular waveguide. Two TLSs are fixed at different points in the waveguide and initially share an excitation. For the energy separation of the…

While exponential decay is ubiquitous in Nature, deviations at both short and long times are dictated by quantum mechanics. Non-exponential decay is known to arise due to the possibility of reconstructing the initial state from the decaying…
Chaotic quantum systems at finite energy density are expected to act as their own heat baths, rapidly dephasing local quantum superpositions. We argue that in fact this dephasing is subexponential for chaotic dynamics with conservation laws…
The nature of dielectric echoes in amorphous solids at low temperatures is investigated. It is shown that at long delay times the echo amplitude is determined by a small subset of two level systems (TLS) having negligible relaxation and…
The tunneling time is here investigated by means of an electromagnetic model, for a system where a gap, between two parallel planes, acts as a classically-forbidden region for an impinging pulse with incidence angle larger than the critical…

We consider a ballistic Mach-Zehnder interferometer for electrons propagating chirally in one dimension (such as in an integer Quantum Hall effect edge channel). In such a system, dephasing occurs when the finite range of the interaction…
