Quantum systems composed of two qubits consitute the starting point for the study of quantum entanglement. The evolution of entanglement when such a system is subject to open system dynamics will be examined in this talk. We will derive a simple factorization relation which describes the system’s final entanglement after one of the qubits has undergone an arbitrary physical process.
