Abstract: | It is shown that (quasi) charge of a Josephson tunnel junction can be considered as a macroscopic quantum degree of freedom. In the adiabatic limit we derive the effective action of the tunnel junction in the quasicharge representation and calculate the quantum decay rate of the charge states. |
