Nonlocal effects in Fock space

Quantum Physics 2009-10-28 v2

Abstract

If a physical system contains a single particle, and if two distant detectors test the presence of linear superpositions of one-particle and vacuum states, a violation of classical locality can occur. It is due to the creation of a two-particle component by the detecting process itself.
