Abstract

School of Mathematics and Physics, The Queen’s University, Belfast BT7 1NN, United Kingdom(Received 14 November 2003)A pure state decoheres into a mixed state as the system entangles with an environment whichis initially in a pure state. However, it is not de nite that the system becomes entangled with acon ned environment with which it only ever interacts.
