Abstract

Proposed here is an exactly soluble model for the field-free motion of a quantum particle interacting with a heat bath. The heat-bath interaction includes a fluctuating random force and a frictional force of Langevin type. The momentum and position distributions obtained in the model have a close relation to the corresponding solutions of the Fokker-Planck equation of a free classical particle.
