至少在某些方面，不可能存在（可定域的）粒子的相对论性量子力学理论，这被视为“公认的观点”。在试图调和量子力学与相对论的过程中，也就是说，人们被推向场论;所有关于“粒子”的讨论都必须被理解为，至少在原则上，讨论量子化场的性质和相互作用。今天，我想建议，有可能用一个令人信服的“不去定理”来概括这一论点。事实上，在我看来，关于（所谓的）相对论量子力学中粒子的“非定域性”的各种技术结果，可以追溯到大约30年前，最好理解为这样一个定理的版本。
IN SOME QUARTERS, AT LEAST, IT COUNTS as the “received view” that there cannot be a relativistic, quantum mechanical theory of (localizable) particles. In the attempt to reconcile quantum mechanics with relativity theory, that is, one is driven to a field theory; all talk about “particles” has to be understood, at least in principle, as talk about the properties of, and interactions among, quantized fields. I want to suggest, today, that it is possible to capture this thesis in a convincing “no-go theorem”. Indeed, it seems to me that various technical results on the “non-localizability” of particles in (so-called) relativistic quantum mechanics, going back some thirty years, are best understood as versions of such a theorem.1
