Decoherence MatricesIt is known that the Lorentz group is the natural language for a given two-beam system if there are no decoherence effects. This aspect of the twobeam system formulated in terms of the six-parameter representations of the Lorentz group. It is shown that these transformations do not alter the degree of coherence. Thus, the decoherence matrices do not come from the Lorentz group. It is shown therefore that a larger group is needed to accommodate the decoherence effects in the two-beam system. This larger group is isomorphic to O(3,3) or the Lorentz group with three space and three time dimensions.
