L. Horvath, R. Fisher, M. J. Collett, and H. J. Carmichael

TL;DR
This paper models the resonant heating of a trapped ion as a quantum stochastic process, integrating coherent evolution with quantum jumps, and compares quantum and semi-quantum approaches.
Contribution
It introduces a quantum stochastic framework for ion heating and compares quantum and semi-quantum models for the process.
Findings
Quantum and semi-quantum models show different dynamics.
Quantum jumps significantly influence heating behavior.
The framework enhances understanding of ion heating mechanisms.
Abstract
The resonant heating of a harmonically trapped ion by a standing-wave light field is described as a quantum stochastic process combining a coherent Schroedinger evolution with Bohr-Einstein quantum jumps. Quantum and semi-quantum treatments are compared.
