In classical active matter systems, dissipation plays a major role. Currently, there is an increased focus in exploring quantum mechanical active matter systems, for which the question of how to model dissipation is far from obvious. In fact, for open quantum systems, a variety of quantum heat bath models have been proposed that are valid in different physical situations. Here, we compare the effects of different quantum heat baths based on a recently proposed quantum active matter model [Phys. Rev. Res. 7, 033008 (2025)]. We find that the choice of the quantum heat bath strongly influences the dynamics at short timescales, which is the regime in which quantum effects are most relevant.
