80. In a recent work by B. Damski, H. T. Quan, and W. H. Zurek, e-print arXiv: 0911.5729 (to be published), the behavior of the decoherence factor has been advocated as a dynamical indicator of the QPT in an Ising environment. Formally, the required procedure of first turning on the system-environment coupling at the initial time, followed by adiabatic evolution of the Ising chain across the QCP A, can be interpreted in terms of a combined sudden adiabatic quench scheme on the joint system-plus-environment Hamiltonian. Interestingly, KZS is found to occur in the exponent of the decoherence factor as well.
