38. We follow the conventions of the gas phase wave packet dynamics literature, where "dephasing" is used for change of the relative phases of the wave packet components due to anharmonicity of the molecular spectrum, whereas "decoherence" is used for loss of phase. The former takes place in the isolated molecule limit whereas the latter requires collisions or photon emission. It is important to note that this usage differs from that standard in the condensed phase literature, where loss of phase information due to collisions is referred to as "dephasing" while the term "quantum decoherence" is reserved for loss of phase information due to decay of the overlap between bath wave functions reacting to different system states.
