The Paradoxes of the Interaction-Free Measurement
arXiv:quant-ph/0102049 · doi:10.1515/zna-2001-0115
Abstract
Interaction-free measurements introduced by Elitzur and Vaidman [Found. Phys. 23, 987 (1993)] allow finding infinitely fragile objects without destroying them. Paradoxical features of these and related measurements are discussed. The resolution of the paradoxes in the framework of the Many-Worlds Interpretation is proposed.
