  The common perception is that strong coupling to the environment will always
render the evolution of the system density matrix quasi-classical (in fact,
diffusive) in the long time limit. We present here a counter-example, in which
a particle makes quantum transitions between the sites of a d-dimensional
hypercubic lattice whilst strongly coupled to a bath of two-level systems which
  'record' the transitions. The long-time evolution of an initial wave packet
is found to be most unusual: the mean square displacement of the particle
density matrix shows long-range ballitic behaviour, but simultaneously a kind
of weakly-localised behaviour near the origin. This result may have important
implications for the design of quantum computing algorithms, since it describes
a class of quantum walks.
