Investigating bounds on decoherence in quantum mechanics via B and D-mixing

We investigate bounds on decoherence in quantum mechanics by studying B and D-mixing observables, making use of many precise new measurements, particularly from the LHC and B factories. In that respect we show that the stringent bounds obtained by a different group in 2013 rely on unjustified assump...

Description
Summary:We investigate bounds on decoherence in quantum mechanics by studying B and D-mixing observables, making use of many precise new measurements, particularly from the LHC and B factories. In that respect we show that the stringent bounds obtained by a different group in 2013 rely on unjustified assumptions. Finally, we point out which experimental measurements could improve the decoherence bounds considerably.
