Non-local property of single-photon states: Illustration with spontaneously emitted photon from a Hydrogen atom

We discuss a new proof of the non-locality of single-photons using a concrete physical observable such as the local energy density. As an illustration of this non-locality, we compute the mean value of the local energy observable for the spontaneous emission from a Hydrogen atom. We find that, in th...
