Abstract:
In the paper we discuss possible applications of the so-called stroboscopic tomography (stroboscopic observability) to selected decoherence models of 2-level quantum systems. The main assumption behind our reasoning claims that the time evolution of the analyzed system is given by a master equation of the form (dot {rho } = mathbb {L} rho ) and the macroscopic information about the system is provided by the mean values mi(tj) = Tr(Qiρ(tj)) of certain observables ({Q_{i}}_{i=1}^{r} ) measured at different time instants ({t_{j}}_{j=1}^{p}). The goal of the stroboscopic tomography is to establish the optimal criteria for observability of a quantum system, i.e. minimal value of r and p as well as the properties of the observables ({Q_{i}}_{i=1}^{r} ).
