Quasiparticle tunneling: P(E) theory
Abstract
A calculation of the energy decay rate of a Josephson qubit from non-equilibrium quasiparticles is made using the environmental P(E) theory. For a large-capacitance qubit, we extend the theory to include the tunneling of quasiparticles, which has an electron- and hole-like charge components.
