Motivated by recent experiments on quantum mechanical charge pumping in a Cooper pair sluice [1], we present a measurement scheme for observing shifts of transition frequencies in two-level quantum systems induced by broadband environmental fluctuations. In contrast to quantum optical and related setups based on cavities, the impact of a thermal phase reservoir is considered. The experimental protocol to measure the Lamb shift in experimentally feasible superconducting circuits is analyzed in detail and supported by numerical simulations [2]. Therefore, we turn our attention to a brief description of the actual setup followed by an analysis of the detection proposal.
