    "abstract": "We investigate the mechanism of damping and heating of trapped ions\nassociated with the polarization of the residual background gas induced by the\noscillating ions themselves. Reasoning by analogy with the physics of surface\nelectrons in liquid helium, we demonstrate that the decay of Rabi oscillations\nobserved in experiments on 9Be+ can be attributed to the polarization phenomena\ninvestigated here. The measured sensitivity of the damping of Rabi oscillations\nwith respect to the vibrational quantum number of a trapped ion is also\npredicted in our polarization model.",
