Microscopic description of ac Josephson effect in superconducting junctions beyond the tunneling limit should account for subtle nonequilibrium effects. Here, the authors demonstrate that this problem can be fully resolved by analyzing dissipative quantum dynamics of Andreev bound states inside the junction. Within this analysis, the authors identify Landau-Zener tunneling between subgap Andreev levels and quantum escape of quasiparticles from such levels into continuum of states above the gap as the dominant processes for the problem under consideration.
