Description

Measurement-based feedback control works by measuring the system and estimating its properties, and providing feedback in order to reach the desired state. This work investigates the dynamics of a system under continuous measurement and feedback. It turns out that feedback plays a limited role in determining the steady state of a particle in a harmonic trap. Instead, feedback can be used to compensate for a part of the Hamiltonian of the system or to lower the energy of the particle. Simulations, which employ the second-order weak scheme, illustrate these effects and indicate the local stability of the steady state solution.
