In the third lecture I will examine decoherence from a different perspective: I will focus on the way in which correlations between system and environment are created and develop. Classicality will be related with the existence of redundant records of the state of the system imprinted in the environment. The way in which this can be quantified will be discussed and illustrated for the case of quantum Brownian motion. |
