This investigation is relevant to the dynamics of nuclear spins 1/2 in solids and to the dynamics of low temperature glasses. Our main tool is a hybrid quantum classical simulation, which enables us to study the time evolution of three-dimensional systems consisting of up to 1000 two-level systems. The results indicate, that the dynamics of the full system is delocalized up to very large disorders. We derive an estimate for the time scale of energy transport. When the disorder is larger than a certain value, this time scale becomes proportional to the disorder. date: 2015 id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00018141 ppn_swb: 1655719416 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-181416 date_accepted: 2015-01-21 advisor: HASH(0x561a62831598) language: eng bibsort: HANTSCHELFENERGYTRAN2015 full_text_status: public place_of_pub: Heidelberg citation: Hantschel, Frank (2015) Energy transport in the medium of interacting two-level systems.
