We extend the results on decoherence in the thermodynamic limit [M. Frasca, Phys. Lett. A {\bf 283}, 271 (2001)] to general Hamiltonians. It is shown that N independent particles, initially properly prepared, have a set of observables…
While agreeing with our exact expression for the time dependence of the motion of a free particle in an initial superposition state, corresponding to two identical Gaussians separated by a distance $d$, at temperature $T$, Gobert et al., in…

Paper withdrawn due to errors. Revised version may or may not appear in the future.
The paper is withdrawn. The proof has an error and it requires a different approach.
This paper has been withdrawn by the authors due to an error in the main theorem.

The paper is being withdrawn because of some theoretical inconsistencies.
The paper has been withdrawn due to numerical error.
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to error in equation (46).
This paper is being withdrawn because an error was discovered in lemma 4.3. Although the rest of the paper appears to be correct, this error invalidates the proof of theorem 3.1 and theorem 3.3.
Textbooks on cosmology exhibit a thermodynamic inconsistency for free streaming, decoupled matter. It is connected here to the chemical potential, which deviates from its equilibrium value $\mu=\alpha k_BT$, where $\alpha$ is the usual…

The study of environmentally induced superselection and of the process of decoherence was originally motivated by the search for the emergence of classical behavior out of the quantum substrate, in the macroscopic limit. This limit, and…
Emergent quantum technologies have led to increasing interest in decoherence - the processes that limit the appearance of quantum effects and turn them into classical phenomena. One important cause of decoherence is the interaction of a…
The paper is withdrawn by the author due to an oversimplified and misleading approach which was taken initially as a starting point.
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to a crucial error in the formulation.
We re-derive the quantum master equation for the decoherence of a massive Brownian particle due to collisions with the lighter particles from a thermal environment. Our careful treatment avoids the occurrence of squares of Dirac delta…
