Experimental signatures of the quantum-classical transition in a nanomechanical oscillator modeled as a damped driven double-well problem

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We demonstrate robust and reliable signatures for the transition from quantum to classical behavior in the position probability distribution of a damped double-well system using the Qunatum State Diffusion approach to open quantum systems. We argue that these signatures are within experimental reach, for example in a doubly-clamped nanomechanical beam.
