Quantum reference frame transformations as symmetries and the paradox of the third particle

Marius Krumm, Philipp A. Hoehn, Markus P. Mueller

In a quantum world, reference frames are ultimately quantum systems too -- but what does it mean to "jump into the perspective of a quantum particle"? In this work, we show that qu…
