Popis: When using a time asymmetric quantum theory, one must identify the time evolution parameter with a duration in time rather than with a time coordinate value. This identification restricts the options for the quantum mechanical environment of open quantum systems. The restriction may be important for interpretational questions concerning irreversibility or entanglement, but there is no measurable difference between a reduced dynamics within a time symmetric theory or within a time asymmetric theory.
