Measurements and Decoherence
A pedagogical and reasonably self-contained introduction to the measurement problems in quantum mechanics and their partial solution by environment-induced decoherence (plus some other important aspects of decoherence) is given.The point that decoherence does not solve the measurement problems completely is clearly brought out. The relevance of interpretation of quantum mechanics in this contex...
متن کاملDecoherence and Wavefunction Collapse in Quantum Measurements
Examining the notion of wavefunction collapse (WFC) in quantum measurements , which came again to be in question in the recent debate on the quantum Zeno effect, we remark that WFC is realized only through decoherence among branch waves by detection, after a spectral decomposition process from an initial object wavefunction to a superposition of branch waves corresponding to relevant measuremen...
متن کاملBaroclinic Eddy Equilibration under Specified Seasonal Forcing
Baroclinic eddy equilibration under a Northern Hemisphere–like seasonal forcing is studied using a modified multilayer quasigeostrophic channel model to investigate the widely used ‘‘quick baroclinic eddy equilibration’’ assumption and to understand to what extent baroclinic adjustment can be applied to interpret the midlatitude climate. Under a slowly varying seasonal forcing, the eddy and mea...
متن کاملDecoherence of anyonic charge in interferometry measurements.
We examine interferometric measurements of the topological charge of (non-Abelian) anyons. The target's topological charge is measured from its effect on the interference of probe particles sent through the interferometer. We find that superpositions of distinct anyonic charges a and a' in the target decohere (exponentially in the number of probes particles used) when the probes have nontrivial...
متن کاملGeometric measure of quantum discord under decoherence
The dynamics of a geometric measure of the quantum discord (GMQD) under decoherence is investigated. We show that the GMQD of a two-qubit state can be alternatively obtained through the singular values of a 3×4 matrix whose elements are the expectation values of Pauli matrices of the two qubits. By using Heisenberg picture, the analytic results of the GMQD is obtained for three typical kinds of...
