Entanglement dynamics: Generalized master equation for uniformly accelerated two-level systems

M. Silvério Soares, Nami Fux Svaiter, Gabriel Menezes · Physical Review A · 2022

We propose an alternative form for the quantum master equation in the theory of open quantum systems. This alternative formalism allows one to describe the dynamics of two-level systems moving along different hyperbolic trajectories with distinct proper times. In the Born-Markov approximation, we consider a quantum massless scalar field coupled with two-level systems. Starting from a separable state, we show the emergence of entanglement harvesting. For different proper accelerations we also verify the entanglement sudden death.
