Decoherence without Dissipation

W. G. Unruh

Published 2012-05-30Version 1

That decoherence can take place in the presence of energy conservation seems to be a poorly known fact. That lack of knowledge has for example bedevilled the discussion of the "black hole information" problem. I present a simple model which illustrates such energy free decoherence.
