We analyse the correlated back and forth dynamics and dynamic heterogeneities, i.e. the presence of fast and slow ions, for a lithium metasilicate system via computer simulations. For this purpose we define, in analogy to previous work in…
In standard treatments of open quantum systems, the reduced dynamics is described starting from the assumption that the system and the environment are initially uncorrelated. This assumption, however, is not always guaranteed in realistic…

The exact dynamics of a system coupled to an environment can be described by an integro-differential stochastic equation of its reduced density. The influence of the environment is incorporated through a mean-field which is both stochastic…
