the study of decoherence as a proper subject
the study of decoherence as a proper subject began in 1970, with h. dieter zeh 's paper "on the interpretation of measurement in quantum theory". zeh regarded the wavefunction as a physical entity, rather than a calculational device or a compendium of statistical information (as is typical for copenhagen-type interpret...

the significance of decoherence was further highlighted in 1970 by the german physicist h. dieter zeh, and it has been a subject of active research since the 1980s. decoherence has been developed into a complete framework, but there is controversy as to whether it solves the measurement problem, as the founders of deco...

although he did not use the term, the concept of quantum decoherence was first introduced in 1951 by the american physicist david bohm, who called it the "destruction of interference in the process of measurement". bohm later used decoherence to handle the measurement process in the de broglie-bohm interpretation of qu...

decoherence has been used to understand the possibility of the collapse of the wave function in quantum mechanics. decoherence does not generate actual wave-function collapse. it only provides a framework for apparent wave-function collapse, as the quantum nature of the system "leaks" into the environment. that is, com...
