Evidence for nonlocality and nontemporality of a single photon

TL;DR

This paper argues that single photons exhibit nonlocality and nontemporality, with their trajectories influenced by final states separated in time and space, challenging classical notions of causality.

Contribution

It provides a theoretical analysis based on Gedanken experiments and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle to demonstrate nonlocal and nontemporal properties of single photons.

Findings

Photon trajectories are causally influenced by future states.

Excludes hidden variable explanations for photon behavior.

Supports nonlocal and nontemporal interpretations of quantum mechanics.

Abstract

An analysis of the energy exchange by photons is presented based on single-photon Gedanken experiments and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Excluding hidden variable properties of a single photon one has to accept that the total photon trajectory undergoes causal influences from the final state separated in time and space from the initial state: nonlocality and nontemporality.
