An analytic theory is presented for the thermally activated rate constant in systems which exhibit spatially dependent and timecorrelated friction along the reaction coordinate motion. The theory is valid over the entire range of damping strengths, including in the region of the Rramers turnover. It

A formalism has been developed, using Feynman's space-time formulation of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics whereby the behavior of a system of interest, which is coupled to other external quantum systems, may be calculated in terms of its own variables only. It is shown that the effect of the exter
We make the first steps toward a generic theory for energy spreading and quantum dissipation. The Wall formula for the calculation of friction in nuclear physics and the Drude formula for the calculation of conductivity in mesoscopic physics can be regarded as two special results of the general form
We present a REDUCE package for analitical computation of arbitrary massless, one-and two-loop Feynman diagrams of the propagator type within dimensional regularization.
