The time of arrival concept in quantum mechanics
arXiv:quant-ph/9801043 · doi:10.1006/spmi.1997.0544
Abstract
The concept and the formalization of the arrival time in quantum mechanics are discussed. Different approaches based on trajectories, quantization rules, time operators, phase space techniques, renewal equations or operational procedures are reviewed or proposed. Open questions and loose ends are pointed out.
