The Quantum-Classical Transition
o Is classical Physics finally more difficult to understand than quantum physics?
* Quantum theory of open systems: A playground for theorists
o density matrices
o Master equation
o Lindlbad-Operatores
o Wigner functions
o Dekoherence versus dissipation
o Which observables are robust? (Pointer states)
o Simple model systems: How do quanta couple to their environment?
o What is the relation between complementarity,
perturbation (Heisenberg microscope) and entanglement?
* Experiments on decoherence: Can you observe Schrödinger's cat dye?
o atom inteferometers
o cavity QED
o ionen traps
o kaons
o electron interferometry in semiconductors and close to surfaces
o What has all that to do with quantum computers?
* speculative theories
o Can the Schrödinger equation be extended to include the collapse
of the wave function ?
o Can gravity be made responsable for the loss of quantum properties ?
o Is there quantum superposition in biological systems?
o What about many worlds?
