dc.descriptionGiven a Hamiltonian $H$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ it is shown that, under the assumption that $σ(H)=σ_{ac}(H)=R^+$, there exist unique positive operators $T_F$ and $T_B$ registering the Schrödinger time evolution generated by $H$ in the forward (future) direction and backward (past) direction respectively. These operators may be considered as time observables for the quantum evolution. Moreover, it is shown that the same operators may serve as time observables in the construction of quantum stochastic differential equations and quantum stochastic processes in the framework of the Hudson-Parthasarathy quantum stochastic calculus. The basic mechanism enabling for the definition of the time observables originates from the recently developed semigroup decomposition formalism used in the description of the time evolution of resonances in quantum mechanical scattering problems.
