Comment on a Proposed Super-Kamiokande Test for Quantum Gravity Induced Decoherence Effects

Lisi, Marrone, and Montanino have recently proposed a test for quantum gravity induced decoherence effects in neutrino oscillations observed at Super-Kamiokande. We comment here that their equations have the same qualitative form as the energy conserving objective state vector reduction equations discussed by a number of authors. However, using the Planckian parameter value proposed to explain state vector reduction leads to a neutrino oscillation effect many orders of magnitude smaller than would be detectable at Super-Kamiokande. Similar estimates hold for the Girardi, Rimini, and Weber spontaneous localization approach to state vector reduction, and our remarks are relevant as well to proposed K meson and B meson tests of gravity induced decoherence.
