Caldeira and Leggett derived the Fokker Planck equation with friction for the Wigner distribution of the particle in the large-temperature limit: however, their (nonrigorous) derivation was not free of criticism, especially since the limiting equation is not of Lindblad form. In this paper we recover the correct form of their result in a rigorous way. We also point out that the source of the diffusion is physically restrictive under this scaling. We investigate the model at a fixed temperature and in the large-time limit, where the origin of the diffusion is a cumulative effect of many resonant collisions. We obtain a heat equation with a friction term for the radial process in phase space and we prove the Einstein relation in this case.","lang":"eng"}],"author":[{"first_name":"François","full_name":"Castella, François","last_name":"Castella"},{"orcid":"0000-0001-5366-9603","first_name":"László","full_name":"Erdös, László","id":"4DBD5372-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Erdös"},{"last_name":"Frommlet","full_name":"Frommlet, Florian","first_name":"Florian"},{"last_name":"Markowich","full_name":"Markowich, Peter","first_name":"Peter"}],"doi":"10.1023/A:1018667323830","_id":"2732"}
