The observation of disturbances is a signature that the single ion displays quantum-mechanical behaviour -- for a classical oscillator the modular measurements are expected to be always unperturbed.

A Vermont research team has cracked a 90-year-old puzzle, creating a quantum version of the damped harmonic oscillator. By reformulating Lamb’s classical model, they showed how atomic vibrations can ...

The observation of disturbances is a signature that the single ion displays quantum-mechanical behaviour --- for a classical oscillator the modular measurements are expected to be always unperturbed.

It is pointed out that classical statistical mechanics is a field theory with Liouville's equation as its field equation. The statistical mixing of a one-dimensional oscillator is examined and a ...

When a guitar string is plucked or a playground swing is set in motion, the movement gradually fades away. Physicists call these “damped harmonic oscillators,” and Newton’s laws do a fine job of ...

Below you can see basic examples of a transistor-based Nonautonomous Chaotic Oscillator and an Autonomous Hartley Chaotic Oscillator. Another classical oscillator wherein chaotic behaviour may be ...

Inspired by path integral solutions to the quantum relaxation problem, we develop a numerical method to solve classical stochastic differential equations with multiplicative noise that avoids ...
