The dephasing influence of a dissipative environment reduces linear superpositions of macroscopically distinct quantum states (sometimes also called Schr\"odinger cat states) usually almost immediately to a statistical mixture. This process…
Decoherence is usually described as the loss of local quantum coherence after tracing over environmental degrees of freedom. This reduced description, however, hides the reservoir state that carries the lost coherence. Here we show that…
