    "abstract": "We present an analytical study of the loss of quantum coherence at absolute\nzero. Our model consists of a harmonic oscillator coupled to an environment of\nharmonic oscillators at absolute zero. We find that for an Ohmic bath, the\noffdiagonal elements of the density matrix in the position representation decay\nas a power law in time at late times. This slow loss of coherence in the\nquantum domain is qualitatively different from the exponential decay observed\nin studies of high temperature environments.",
