Three-box paradox and ‘Cheshire cat grin’: the case of spin-1 atoms

A. Matzkin, A K Pan

We propose in this work a definite theoretical implementation of the three-box paradox - a scheme in which a single quantum particle appears to be present with certainty in two separate boxes - with spin-1 atoms. We further show how our setup can give rise to a "Cheshire cat grin" type of situation, in which an atom can apparently be found with certainty in one of the boxes while one of its properties (the angular momentum projection along a specifically chosen axis) appears to be in a different box. The significance of our findings are discussed relative to the status of the properties of a system obtained from weak measurements.We propose in this work a definite theoretical implementation of the three-box paradox - a scheme in which a single quantum particle appears to be present with certainty in two separate boxes - with spin-1 atoms.

The Three-Box Paradox Revisited

Ravon, T, Vaidman, L

The classical three-box paradox of Kirkpatrick [J. Phys. A 36 4891 (2003)] is compared to the original quantum Three-Box paradox of Aharonov and Vaidman [J. Phys. A 24 2315 (1991)]. It is argued that the quantum Three-Box experiment is a "quantum paradox" in the sense that it is an example of a classical task which cannot be accomplished using classical means, but can be accomplished using quantum devices. It is shown that Kirkpatrick's card game is analogous to a different game with a particle in three boxes which does not contain paradoxical features.The classical three-box paradox of Kirkpatrick [J.
