Thermalization time-scale of the giant quadrupole resonance

Description

The effects of temperature and dissipation on the quantum transition rates are investigated using a Heisenberg-Langevin equation for the density matrix. This approach is applied to described the isothermal and adiabatic evolution towards thermalization of the nuclear giant quadrupole shape vibration within a collective two state model. (author)
