Decoherence and entropy generation in an open quantum scalar-fermion system with Yukawa interaction
Abstract We have studied the decoherence mechanism in a fermion and scalar quantum field theory with the Yukawa interaction in the Minkowski spacetime, using the non-equilibrium effective field theory formalism appropriate for open systems. The scalar field is treated as the system whereas the fermi...
