Abstract:
By using the Lindblad theory for open quantum systems, an analytical expression of the tunneling probability through an inverted
parabola is obtained. This penetration probability depends on the environment coefficients. It is shown that the tunneling
probability increases with the dissipation and the temperature of the thermal bath.
