In the realm of quantum information, the concept of superposition plays a fundamental role in the representation of qubits. A qubit, the quantum counterpart of classical bits, can exist in a state that is a linear combination of its basis states. This state is what we refer to as a superposition. When discussing the information
Can decoherence be explained by the quantum system getting entangled with its surroundings?

Decoherence in quantum systems is a fundamental concept that plays a crucial role in the behavior and understanding of quantum systems. The process of decoherence occurs when a quantum system interacts with its surrounding environment, leading to the loss of coherence and the emergence of classical behavior. This phenomenon is essential to consider when investigating
