dc.descriptionThe characteristic function for the joint measurement of the changes of two commuting observables upon an external forcing of a quantum system is derived. In particular, the statistics of the internal energy, the exchanged heat and the work of a quantum system that {\it weakly} couples to its environment is determined in terms of the energy changes of the system and the environment due to the action of a classical, external force on the system. If the system and environment initially are in a canonical equilibrium, the work performed on the system is shown to satisfy the Tasaki-Crooks theorem and the Jarzynski equality.
