Note for reviewers

This draft is based on published sources (Breuer & Petruccione, Rivas & Huelga, etc.). I’ve rewritten parts for clarity and ensured all content is cited. Not AI-generated.

Article scope

This draft article covers open-system formulations in quantum computing, describing how quantum computers interact with their environment, including noise and decoherence. It is within the scope of WikiProject Physics and WikiProject Quantum computing. Participants can visit the respective project pages on main Wikipedia to join discussions and see a list of open tasks.

Assessment

This draft is currently rated as Draft-Class and NA-importance. It does not yet require a formal rating on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.
