TLDR
In this article, the Schrodinger, Heisenberg, and Weyl-Wigner-Moyal representations of the Lindblad equaton are given explicitly and the solutions of the differential equations for the variances are put in a new synthetic form, suggested by a direct computation of the variance from the time dependent Weyl operators.About:

The Time-Convolutionless Projection Operator Technique in the Quantum Theory of Dissipation and Decoherence
TL;DR: In this article, a perturbation expansion of the reduced density matrix equation is obtained involving a time-dependent generator which is local in time, which is generalized to enable the treatment of system-environment correlations in the initial state, which arise in the computation of equilibrium correlation functions or from the preparation of the system by a quantum measurement.

On the Quantum Correction For Thermodynamic Equilibrium
TL;DR: In this article, the Boltzmann formula for the probability of a configuration is given in classical theory by means of a probability function, and the result discussed is developed for the correction term.

On the Generators of Quantum Dynamical Semigroups
TL;DR: In this paper, the notion of a quantum dynamical semigroup is defined using the concept of a completely positive map and an explicit form of a bounded generator of such a semigroup onB(ℋ) is derived.

On the quantum correction for thermodynamic equilibrium
TL;DR: In this article, the Boltzmann formula for lower temperatures has been developed for a correction term, which can be developed into a power series of h. The formula is developed for this correction by means of a probability function and the result discussed.

When is the wigner quasi-probability density non-negative?
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a necessary and sufficient condition for the Wigner quasi-probability density to be a true density is that the corresponding Schrodinger state function be the exponential of a quadratic polynomial.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the branching ratio for 14C nuclei relative to α-particles from 223Ra is 8.5±2.5×l0−10, corresponding to a reduced width (preformation probability) smaller by a factor of ∼105 to 106.
