Quantum Systems Correlated with a Finite Bath: Nonequilibrium Dynamics and Thermodynamics
Describing open quantum systems far from equilibrium is challenging, in particular when the environment is mesoscopic, when it develops nonequilibrium features during the evolution, or when memory effects cannot be disregarded. Here we derive a master equation that explicitly accounts for system-bat...
