Interference mechanism of seemingly superluminal tunnelling

Quantum Physics 2015-06-15 v1

Abstract

Apparently 'superluminal' transmission, e.g., in quantum tunnelling and its variants, occurs via a subtle interference mechanism which allows reconstruction of the entire spacial shape of a wave packet from its front tail. It is unlikely that the effect could be described adequately in simpler terms.
