The Case of the Disappearing (and Re-Appearing) Particle

Yakir Aharonov, Eliahu Cohen, Ariel Landau +1

A novel prediction is derived by the Two-State-Vector-Formalism (TSVF) for a particle superposed over three boxes. Under appropriate pre- and postselections, and with tunneling ena…

Interaction-Free Effects Between Distant Atoms

Yakir Aharonov, Eliahu Cohen, Avshalom C. Elitzur +1

A Gedanken experiment is presented where an excited and a ground-state atom are positioned such that, within the former's half-life time, they exchange a photon with 50% probabilit…

Is the Quilted Multiverse Consistent with a Thermodynamic Arrow of Time?

Yakir Aharonov, Eliahu Cohen, Tomer Shushi

Theoretical achievements, as well as much controversy, surround multiverse theory. Various types of multiverses, with an increasing amount of complexity, were suggested and thoroug…

Observing Quantum Trajectories: From Mott's Problem to Quantum Zeno Effect and Back

Maurice de Gosson, Basil Hiley, Eliahu Cohen

The experimental results of Kocsis et al., Mahler et al. and the proposed experiments of Morley et al. show that it is possible to construct "trajectories" in interference regions…

Realisation of Qudits in Coupled Potential Wells

Ariel Landau, Yakir Aharonov, Eliahu Cohen

Quantum computation strongly relies on the realisation, manipulation and control of qubits. A central method for realizing qubits is by creating a double-well potential system with…

Comment on "Role of Potentials in the Aharonov-Bohm Effect"

Yakir Aharonov, Eliahu Cohen, Daniel Rohrlich

Are the electromagnetic scalar and vector potentials dispensable? Lev Vaidman has suggested that local interactions of gauge-invariant quantities, e.g. magnetic torques, suffice fo…
