Quantum Dissipative Systemsby F. Guinea, E. Bascones, M.J. Calderon
An interesting topic of quantum mechanics is the study of open quantum systems. By it, we mean a simple quantum system, described by one or a few degrees of freedom, interacting with a background characterized by a continuum of excitations.

Non-locality and Possible Worldby Tomasz F. Bigaj - De Gruyter Open
This book uses the formal semantics of counterfactual conditionals to analyze the problem of non-locality in quantum mechanics. Counterfactual conditionals (subjunctive conditionals) enter the analysis of quantum entangled systems ...
