Dissipation and decoherence are reviewed for quantum magnets, in which quantum fluctuations render a semi-classical picture incorrect. This is done for 3 examples in detail. First, the tunneling of magnetic domain walls is considered-this is a typical quantum soliton problem, with dissipation being
Stemming from the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, it is noted that any Hermitian form representing work done on a system yields a bounded expectation of energy. This expectation can be periodic, quasiperiodic or even chaotic. Such boundedness is unrealistic because energy may be added to or rem
