Resumen en inglés A two-particle interferometer is theoretically analyzed to show how decoherence induced by interactions with the environment affects time correlations, a process we call time correlation decoherence. Specifically, on the basis of simple mathematical analysis, we show how the interaction between a bipartite entangled system and a photon bath representing the environment can efface the oscillations in the coincidence detection rate of the interferometer. We discuss the dependence of this kind of decoherence on the photon energy and density
