What's the speed of propagation of the Pauli exclusion "force"? I.e. you have a macroscopic degenerate system. All of a sudden one particle decays into other stuff (you measure the decay products and so localize the position of the ex-particle) and leaves a state free. How long is it before the other side notices? Would this be a physical effect of wavefunction "collapse"? : Hartmut Frommert <phfrom@nyx.uni-konstanz.de> : Dept of Physics, Univ of Constance, P.O.Box 55 60, D-W-7750 Konstanz, Germany : -- Eat whale killers, not whales -- -- -Matt Kennel mbk@inls1.ucsd.edu -Institute for Nonlinear Science, University of California, San Diego -*** AD: Archive for nonlinear dynamics papers & programs: FTP to -*** lyapunov.ucsd.edu, username "anonymous".
