On a different expression of the classical limit of quantum mechanics
Published 14 Aug 2018 in quant-ph | (1808.04700v2)
Abstract: The principle of correspondence (or classical limit) is essential in quantum mechanics. Yet, how and why quantum phenomena vanish at the macroscopic scale are issues still open to debate. Here, quantum mechanical predictions for Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states of qubits are shown to be easier to reproduce with a classical model as the number of particles increases, even in the absence of loopholes or conspiratorial mechanisms of any kind. It is conjectured that this result may lead to the simplest way to express the principle of correspondence.
