Resumen:
In this further Letter on the onset of classical behaviour in field theory due to a phase transition, we show that it can be phrased easily in termsof the decoherence functional, without having to use the master equation. To demonstrate this, we consider the decohering effects due to thedisplacement of domain boundaries, with implications for the displacement of defects, in general. We see that decoherence arises so quickly inthis event, that it is negligible in comparison to decoherence due to field fluctuations in the way defined in our previous papers.
