One of the people who contributed significantly to our conceptual understanding of this theory was Heinz-Dieter Zeh (1932-2018). He was the pioneer of the process of decoherence, through which the classical appearance of our world can be understood. This volume presents a collection of essays dedicated to his memory, written by distinguished scientists and scholars. They cover all aspects of the interpretation of quantum theory in general and the quantum-to-classical transition in particular. This volume provides illuminating reading to anyone seeking a deep understanding of quantum theory and its relevance to the foundations of physics.Fundamental Theories of Physics,2365-6425 ;204Quantum theoryPhysicsPhilosophySciencePhilosophyQuantum PhysicsPhilosophical Foundations of Physics and AstronomyPhilosophy of ScienceQuantum theory.PhysicsPhilosophy.SciencePhilosophy.Quantum Physics.Philosophical Foundations of Physics and Astronomy.Philosophy of Science.530.12530.12Kiefer Claus62006Kiefer ClausedtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910552734103321From Quantum to Classical2804348UNINA
