摘要
We model a feasible experiment involving two interacting microwave cavities with very different quality factors. An excitation is initially present in the high Q cavity. Modeling the environment as linearly coupled oscillators, we find a Zeno-like behavior which should occur when the dissipation constant is large enough as compared to the unitary coupling.
