Abstract

We consider Quantum Brownian motion of a toy model, which is a harmonic oscillator that interacts with environment consisting of harmonic oscillators through both qQ and pP types of coupling. At first, we formally derive exact master equation following Unruh and Zurek's method. Subsequently we estimate the behavior of the coefficients in the master equation at initial stage and at late time stage under weak coupling approximation. We find that, as the model with qQ coupling only, the system in supraohmic environment is less dissipative and less diffusive beyond the cutoff time scale than the system in ohmic environment. The cause is due to the weakness of spectral densities of environment in infrared sector
