Quantum Decoherence was proposed to justify the framework and intuition of classical physics as an acceptable approximation: it is the mechanism by which the classical limit emerges from a quantum starting point and determines the location of the quantum-classical boundary.  Decoherence occurs when a system interacts with its environment in a thermodynamically irreversible way. This … Read more
