Abstract

A particle switching between two sites of a symmetric system in weak interaction with an environmental continuum of high density of states exhibits a telegraph-signal-like time development without the need of the Born-Bohr principle of reduction on eigenstates of the measuring equipment. The origin of the telegraph signal is a very weak local coupling of the particle to the continuum of gravitons which is connected with an enormous slow down of the particle motion. The proposed mechanism envisages entanglement to gravitons in high dimensional spacetime, which, in accord with Gauss law, gives rise to a local and much stronger gravitational law compared to classical gravitation. The physics behind the quantum jumps and the telegraph-signal-like time development is elucidated. The model might be useful for studying environmental decoherence effects on adsorbate localization and quantum diffusion on solid surface.
