For harmonic-oscillator classical systems, this is equivalent to the quantum state diffusion equation of open quantum systems, whose Markov limit is a most typical phenomenological theory of continuous wave function collapse; see N. Gisin and I. C. Percival, J. Phys. A 25, 5677 (1992); I. C. Percival, Quantum State Diffusion (Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1998). Exact stochastic equations for the conditional state vector φ/||φ|| have been analyzed recently: L. Diósi, N. Gisin, and W. T. Strunz, Phys. Rev. A 58, 1699 (1998); W. T. Strunz, L. Diósi, and N.
