Reaction-rate theory: fifty years after Kramers

P Hänggi, P Talkner, M Borkovec - Reviews of modern physics, 1990 - APS
The calculation of rate coefficients is a discipline of nonlinear science of importance to much
of physics, chemistry, engineering, and biology. Fifty years after Kramers' seminal paper on …

Supersymmetry and quantum mechanics

F Cooper, A Khare, U Sukhatme - Physics Reports, 1995 - Elsevier
In the past ten years, the ideas of supersymmetry have been profitably applied to many
nonrelativistic quantum mechanical problems. In particular, there is now a much deeper …

[PDF][PDF] Quantum tunnelling in a dissipative system

AO Caldeira, AJ Leggett - Annals of physics, 1983 - bdt.semi.ac.cn
In discussions of the conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics, a crucial role is played

Quantum coherent effects, phase transitions, and the dissipative dynamics of ultra small tunnel junctions

G Schön, AD Zaikin - Physics Reports, 1990 - Elsevier
The quantum dynamics of tunnel junctions with very small capacitance, such that k BT< e
2/2C, is investigated. We derive the quantum mechanical description from the microscopic …

Colloquium: Anomalous metals: Failed superconductors

A Kapitulnik, SA Kivelson, B Spivak - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2019 - APS
The observation of metallic ground states in a variety of two-dimensional electronic systems
poses a fundamental challenge for the theory of electron fluids. Here evidence is analyzed …

Map** of the two-channel Kondo problem to a resonant-level model

VJ Emery, S Kivelson - Physical Review B, 1992 - APS
Abelian bosonization is used to map the two-channel Kondo problem into a resonant-level
Hamiltonian, which is equivalent to noninteracting fermions for a particular value of the …

Influence of dam** on quantum interference: An exactly soluble model

AO Caldeira, AJ Leggett - Physical Review A, 1985 - APS
This paper reports the result of a calculation which shows the effect of dam** on the
quantum interference of two Gaussian wave packets in a harmonic potential. We use the …

Interlayer tunneling and gap anisotropy in high-temperature superconductors

S Chakravarty, A Sudbø, PW Anderson, S Strong - Science, 1993 - science.org
A quantitative analysis of a recent model of high-temperature superconductors based on an
interlayer tunneling mechanism is presented. This model can account well for the observed …
