dc.descriptionI propose to consider photon tunneling as a space-time correlation phenomenon between the emission and absorption of a photon on the two sides of a barrier. Standard technics based on an appropriate counting rate formula may then be applied to derive the tunneling time distribution without any {\em ad hoc} definition of this quantity. General formulae are worked out for a potential model using Wigner-Weisskopf method. For a homogeneous square barrier in the limit of zero tunneling probability a vanishing tunneling time is obtained.
