We define the conditions that should be satisfied in order to have a dissipative effect similar to the one due to an interaction with a (many body) bath. We also compare with the case where the environment is modeled by a random matrix model. In case of interaction with \"chaos\" we observe a regime where the relaxation process is non-universal, and reflects the underlaying semiclassical dynamics. As an example we consider a two level system (spin) that interacts with a two dimensional anharmonic oscillator.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2004-03-18T16:05:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "73.23.-b", "03.65.Yz", "03.65.Sq", "05.45.Mt" ], "keywords": [ "quantum dissipation", "interaction", "dimensional anharmonic oscillator", "random matrix model", "chaotic degrees" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
