Definition
A device or process that causes quantum systems to lose their coherent quantum state and become classical.
Etymology
From de- (reverse) + coherence (from Latin cohaerere, to stick together). Coined in quantum physics terminology in the late 20th century to describe the breakdown of quantum superposition.
Kelly Says
Decoherence is why we don't see cats in superposition—it's the reason the quantum world stays quantum and doesn't mysteriously become our everyday reality. This is one of the deepest unsolved mysteries in physics!
