How to split the electron in one dimension

Abstract
Using the example of the Davydov soliton - a large acoustic polaron in one dimension - we demonstrate that the electron wave function can be fissioned in two or more long-lived, well-localized and spatially arbitrarily far separated fragments. The phenomenon of wave function splitting is a result of the electron-medium interaction, and takes place under a variety of conditions provided the initial wave function of the electron is localized and has at least one node.
