The Journal of Chemical Physics, 101(1):852. http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.468089.0021-9606https://hdl.handle.net/1808/16152This is the publisher's version, also available electronically from http://scitation.aip.org/content/aip/journal/jcp/101/1/10.1063/1.468089.Defining T 1 and T 2 to be the population and phase relaxation times, respectively, for a two‐level system coupled to a bath, previous work for Ohmic spectral densities has shown, surprisingly, that in some instances T 2≳2T 1. This note shows that this inequality can also be realized for non‐Ohmic spectral densities.Article10.1063/1.468089openAccess
