Diagram of the Quantum States Interference

Caption

Space-time diagram of quantum states interference. By reversing the non-zero internal spin state at times \tau_{1} and \tau_{2} the particle can be made to follow the blue (spin +/-1) and orange (spin 0) paths. In doing so they reach a maximum spatial superposition size \Delta x before being brought back to interfere at time \tau_{3}
