Abstract

Effects of low energy excitation on the dynamics of Josephson phase in SNS junction are investigated. From the microscopic Hamiltonian, the effective action for the phase variable is derived. The retardation effects due to low energy excitation in normal (N) region are seen to play important roles in the dynamics of the phase. By the self-consistent harmonic approximation, renormalization of mass and dissipation constant are calculated, revealing the enhancement of the former and the suppression of the latter in general. Various situation appears depending on these renormalized values.
