APPLICATION OF THE SEKE SELF-CONSISTENT PROJECTION OPERATOR METHOD IN THE CASE OF A DISCRETIZED ATOM-FIELD INTERACTION MODEL
JOSIP SEKE, Andrey Vladimirovich Soldatov, Nikolay N. Bogolubov
The relaxation dynamics in the case of a discretized atom-field interaction model, being of great importance in quantum optics, is investigated numerically by an algorithm based on Seke's self-consistent projection operator method. The transition from reversible to irreversible dynamics in the continuous limit is simulated numerically. The dependence of the time evolution of atomic nondecay probability on the number of discrete-field modes, coupled to the atom, is discussed.
