We present a generalization of the existing theory for tunneling in the presence of an electromagnetic environment, which applies to arbitrary networks of linear elements, with each impedance at its individual equilibrium temperature. The fluctuations of such an environment are non-thermal. As an example we discuss the effect of high-temperature fluctuations in the environment. We show that in general these fluctuations exhibit characteristics of Gaussian-correlated and white noise.

Abstract

We present a generalization of the existing theory for tunneling in the presence of an electromagnetic environment, which applies to arbitrary networks of linear elements, with each impedance at its individual equilibrium temperature. The fluctuations of such an environment are non-thermal. As an example we discuss the effect of high-temperature fluctuations in the environment. We show that in general these fluctuations exhibit characteristics of Gaussian-correlated and white noise.
