Under which conditions is quantum brownian motion observable in a microscope?

Statistical Mechanics 2015-05-19 v1

Abstract

We investigate under which conditions we can expect to observe quantum brownian motion in a microscope. Using the fluctuation-dissipation theorem, we investigate quantum brownian motion in an ohmic bath, and estimate temporal and spatial accuracy required to observe a crossover from classical to quantum behavior.
