Abstract
How to introduce thermodynamics to quantum mechanics ? Among from numerous possibilities of solving this task, the simple choice is here: The conventional von Neumann equation deals with a density operator whose probability weights are time independent. Because there is no reason apart from the reversible quantum mechanics that these weights have to be time independent, this constraint is waived, thus making possible to introduce thermodynamical concepts to quantum mechanics. %\textcolor{green}{ This procedure is similar to that of Lindblad's equation, but different on principle. %\textcolor{red}{ But beyond this simple starting-point, the applied thermodynamical concepts of discrete systems may perform a "source theory" for other versions of phenomenological quantum thermodynamics.
