Separation of the Microscopic and Macroscopic Domains
Van Zandt, L. L.
American Journal of Physics, 45, 1, 52-55, Jan 77
Examines the possibility of observing interference in quantum magnification experiments such as the celebrated "Schroedinger cat". Uses the possibility of observing interference for separating the realm of microscopic from macroscopic dynamics; estimates the dividing line to fall at system sizes of about 100 Daltons. (MLH)
