Could this be considered The Observer Effect?

[scifimath]

The unobserved quantum side doesn't care about time or distance so the order goes something like this:

1. quantum field excitation of a new particle is about to happen
    
2. it gets assigned a path in the quantum field
    
3. if the path contains a spacetime enactor (a detector), it swaps the particle to be physical
    
4. the particle or wave is sent via the quantum field if it's a wave / spacetime if physical

What if the path has no detector initially but a detector is placed along the path while particle is in transit? What happens according to you?

Or if detector is removed while particle is in transit?
