True Quantum Dephasing of 2 Qubits — •Julius Helm and Walter Strunz — Theoretical Quantum Dynamics, Institute of Physics, University of Freiburg, Hermann-Herder-Strasse 3, 79104 Freiburg, Germany

A thorough understanding of dephasing processes is of fundamental importance in quantum information. It is known that for a single qubit general dephasing may always be described by random unitary dynamics (so-called random external field (REF)-channels), yet this seizes to be true for two or more qubits [1]. Our aim is to investigate differences between REF-dephasing channels and dephasing originating from entanglement with an environment. As a toy model we consider a system of two qubits that are independently coupled to an "environment" consisting of another qubit.
