Abstract
The Newton–Wigner basis of orthonormal localized states is generalized to orthonormal and relativistic biorthonormal bases on an arbitrary hyperplane in spacetime. This covariant formalism is applied to the measurement of photon location using a hypothetical three-dimensional (3D) array with pixels throughout space turned on at a fixed time and a timelike 2D photon counting array detector with good time resolution. A moving observer will see these detector arrays as rotated in spacetime but the spacelike and timelike experiments remain distinct.
