A two-slit experiment which distinguishes between standard and Bohmian quantum mechanics
Abstract
Description
In this investigation, we have suggested a special two-slit experiment which can distinguish between the standard and the Bohmian quantum mechanics. At the first step, we have shown that observable individual predictions obtained from these two theories are inconsistent for a special case. But, at the ensemble level, they are consistent as was expected. Then, as another special case and using selective detection, it is shown that an observable disagreement between the two theories can exist at the ensemble level of particles. This can encourage new efforts for finding other inconsistencies between the two theories, theoretically and experimentally.
