Abstract
Linear response theory describes quantum measurement with an arbitrary detector weakly coupled to a measured system. This description produces generic quantitative relation characterizing the detector that is analogous to the fluctuation-dissipation theorem for equilibrium systems. The detector characteristic obtained in this way shows how effective is the trade-off between the back-action dephasing and information acquisition by the detector.
