ON THE MEASUREMENT OF TIME CORRELATIONS FOR QUANTUM-MECHANICAL SYSTEMS
M. L. Goldberger, Kenneth Watson
It is cu~tomary in the pedagogica.ldevelopment of quantum mechanics • ...and field theory to mention'the limitations on correlated measurements of observables at different space-time points.Little attention has .•8been given, however, to actual experiments for making such observations, or their usefulness.In this paper and in a subsequent one, we shall •,• discuss both of these subjects from a general point of view and w1 th •.particular applications to scattering processes. :! .This work is an outgrowth from a recent paper on the correlated :1 .counting rate of two detectors recording particles scattered from a 1 . .
