Monitored quantum transport through a disordered one-dimensional conductor

The study investigates electron transport in a one-dimensional conductor under time-resolved measurements, modeling how monitoring affects quantum coherence. It shows that monitoring cuts off phase coherence responsible for localization, causing the typical transmission probability to change from an exponential dependence to a diffusive one. This leads to a logarithmic relationship between the coherence length and measurement strength.
