Quantum dynamical semigroups and dissipative collisions of heavy-ions

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik A Atoms and Nuclei

Abstract

The theory of quantum dynamical semigroups is briefly reviewed including the scattering theory and WKB approximation. This formalism is illustrated by a simple model of dissipative heavy-ion collision.
