16. The idea of defining quantum optical Davies operators in dressed-state bases was advocated on various occasions by Alicki: R. Alicki and K. Lendi, Quantum Dynamical Semigroups and Applications, Lecture Notes in Physics Vol. 286 (Springer, Berlin, 1987)
17. R. Alicki (private communication) has suggested that the missing Davies operator | Ω- â Ω+ | can be introduced as a consequence of an additional system-reservoir interaction of the form a† a/R (we show it in the Appendix 0). Such a term has the additional advantage of automatically taking into account stronger losses for stronger fields. In effect, cavities may be less lossy for n̄ <1 than for n̄ 1, a condition probably met in estimation of cavity parameters.
