The classical-statistical limit of quantum mechanics

Quantum Physics 2009-11-11 v1

Abstract

The classical-statistical limit of quantum mechanics is studied. It is proved that the limit 0\hbar \to 0 is the good limit for the operators algebra but it si not so for the state compact set. In the last case decoherence must be invoked to obtain the classical-statistical limit.
