Decoherence, the measurement problem, and interpretations of quantum mechanics
read the original abstract
Environment-induced decoherence and superselection have been a subject of intensive research over the past two decades, yet their implications for the foundational problems of quantum mechanics, most notably the quantum measurement problem, have remained a matter of great controversy. This paper is intended to clarify key features of the decoherence program, including its more recent results, and to investigate their application and consequences in the context of the main interpretive approaches of quantum mechanics.

Quasilinear evolution versus von Neumann selective measurement
Quasilinear evolution replaces von Neumann projection for selective measurements, providing continuous state reduction without collapse while satisfying no-signaling and Born rule.

Radiation effects on the entanglement of fermion pairs at colliders
Energetic radiation induces decoherence that significantly reduces entanglement in fermion pairs at colliders, with statistically significant signals observable in ttbar(g) at the LHC and tau pairs at Belle II.

Quantum selective measurement as a quasilinear evolution
A quasilinear continuous evolution is introduced for selective quantum measurements that converges to von Neumann projection outcomes while preserving ensemble equivalence and no-signaling.

Decoherence due to the sudden coupling of an impurity to a metal
Sudden hybridization quenches induce dephasing via particle-hole excitations, with mixed linear-logarithmic discretization suppressing finite-size revivals to reveal crossover from coherent oscillations to irreversibl...
