Summary: | In this work, we study quantum decoherence as reflected by the dynamics of a system that accounts for the interaction between matter and a given field. The process is described by an important information geometry tool: Fisher’s information measure (FIM). We find that it appropriately describes this concept, detecting salient details of the quantum–classical changeover (qcc). A good description of the qcc report can thus be obtained; in particular, a clear insight into the role that the uncertainty principle (UP) plays in the pertinent proceedings is presented. Plotting FIM versus a system’s motion invariant related to the UP, one can also visualize how <i>anti-decoherence</i> takes place, as opposed to the decoherence process studied in dozens of papers. In Fisher terms, the qcc can be seen as an order (quantum)–disorder (classical, including chaos) transition.
