I was wondering how the rules work for observation in a quantum system. Particularly, about what happens if two separate entities try measuring at the same time. And also, what kinds of interactions are happening all the time that are considered measurements, for example in quantum thermodynamics, or quantum gravity, is the state considered to be measured as part of the process? And would this be discrete measurements, e.g. of bunch of different entities requesting measurement throughout time? Or more a continuous measurement of the quantum system, or one that is somehow (shared) so to speak (distributed continuously in some sense)? Would there be a rate at which distinct measurements can occur? Like say multiple entities want to measure, they must do so one at a time, and then it would take longer for all to complete than one? If so, is this plausible as some kind of basis for space time curvature, or is this consideration part of some other unified theory?
Hope these questions are not too far off base, my background is not in physics. Thanks
