22. In most cases the extra degree of freedom is not accessible to the experimenter; for example, if the particle is in contact with a heat bath, the extra information may be unrecoverable. Nevertheless, the coupling of a quantum system to a single unobserved degree of freedom is the fundamental mechanism for decoherence (whether or not that degree of freedom can actually be observed).

27. To compensate for frequency anticorrelations in the two daughter photons, the fast axes of the decohering crystals in arms 1 and 2 were oriented at 90° to each other [11].
