Abstract
Monitoring an arbitrary observable is analyzed in the framework of Restricted-Path-Integral (RPI) theory of continuous quantum measurements. While in an usual (quantum-demolition) continuous measurement the measurement noise contains both classical and quantum parts, only the classical noise is shown to be present in a quantum nondemolition (QND) continuous measurement. As a result, no absolute restrictions exist on measurability of a QND observable and the measurement output satisfies the classical equation of motion. Monitoring the energy gives an example of a discrete-spectrum observable.
