Description

Based on basis of the coherent states the density matrix of harmonic oscillator in thermostat is obtained. This method is mathematically refined and physically transparent for the interpretation of quantum phenomena in classical language. Such an approach gives an opportunity to easily find the density matrix in the multi-dimensional case
