Quantum Superposition of a Mirror and Relative Decoherence (as Spontaneous Superposition Breaking)

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Marshall et al. gedanken experiment of the quantum superpposition of a mirror (oscilating part of a Michelson interferometer) interacting with single photon is consequently interpreted by relative decoherence.Such relative decoherence (based on the spontaneous superposition breaking (effective hiding)) on the photon (quantum object) caused by mirror (measurement device) is sufficient to model real measurement.
