A macroscopic clock model to solve the paradox of Schrödinger’s cat

Abstract We propose detecting the moment an atom emits a photon by means of a nearly classical macroscopic clock and discuss its viability. It is shown that what happens in such a measurement depends on the relation between the clock’s accuracy and the width of the energy range available to the phot...
