Quantum paradoxes in quantum transport — •Wolfgang Belzig1 and Adam Bednorz1,21Fachbereich Physik, Universiät Konstanz, D-78457 Konstanz, Germany — 2Institute of Theoretical Physics, University of Warsaw, Hoza 69, PL-00681 Warsaw, Poland

The impossibility of measuring non-commuting quantum mechanical observables is one of the most fascinating consequences of the quantum mechanical postulates, relevant for correlation measurements of the electric current [1]. Hence, to date the investigation of quantum measurement and projection is a fundamentally interesting topic. We propose to test the concept of weak measurement of non-commuting observables in mesoscopic transport experiments, using a quasiprobablistic description [2]. As first example of a paradox, we derive an inequality for current correlators, which is satisfied by every classical probability but violated by high-frequency fourth-order cumulants in the quantum regime for experimentally feasible parameters [3]. Further paradoxes can be used to detect nonlocal quantum correlations (entanglement) in mesoscopic junctions far beyond the regime covered by the usual Bell inequalities.
