Towards a measurement theory in QFT: "Impossible" quantum measurements are possible but not ideal

Naive attempts to put together relativity and quantum measurements lead to signaling between space-like separated regions. In QFT, these are known as $\textit{impossible measurements}$. We show that the same problem arises in non-relativistic quantum physics, where joint nonlocal measurements (i.e.,...
