I just read a news on physicsweb:
http://physicsweb.org/articles/news/11/3/9"
This is called a "quantum non-demolition (QND) measurement on single photons".
I would like to know a little bit more about QNDs.
Why they are called so.
What is special about these QND experiments, or maybe paradoxal (I guess nothing).
Why this single photon experiment is called a QND.
Why it is possible to -apparently- observe a single photon without destroying it.
If and how the photon observed in this experiment has been perturbed?
I guess that non-demolition does not mean non-interaction ...
Web sites, papers, comments, ideas, ... welcome.
