Lessons of Coherence and Decoherence--From Neutrinos to SQUIDS

Abstract

We indicate some of the lessons learned from our work on coherence and decoherence in various fields and mention some recent work with sold state devices as elements of the ``quantum computer'', including the realization of simple logic gates controlled by adiabatic processes. We correct a commonly held misconception concerning decoherence for a free particle.
