Quantum limit of decoherence: Environment induced superselection of energy eigenstates
Preprint
- 12 November 1998
Abstract
We investigate decoherence in the limit where the interaction with the environment is weak and the evolution is dominated by the self Hamiltonian of the system. We show that in this case quantized eigenstates of energy emerge as pointer states selected through the predictability sieve.Keywords
