In this work we analyze quantum decoherence in neutrino oscillations considering the Open Quantum System framework and oscillations through matter for three neutrino families. Taking DUNE as a case study we performed sensitivity analyses for two neutrino flux configurations finding limits for the decoherence parameters. We also offer a physical interpretation for a new peak which arises at the νe appearance probability with decoherence. The best sensitivity regions found for the decoherence parameters are Γ21≤1.2×10−23GeV and Γ32≤7.7×10−25GeV at 90% C. L.
