Probing the Quantum and Classical Boundary: A Tabletop Experiment Using Quantum Optics
In this work, we propose a simple but effective experiment for probing the boundary in which a wave-function collapses. Using a quantum optics system interacting with a photomultiplier tube (PMT), one is able to determine the number of electrons needed to interfere with the "which-path" in...

| Zusammenfassung: | In this work, we propose a simple but effective experiment for probing the
boundary in which a wave-function collapses. Using a quantum optics system
interacting with a photomultiplier tube (PMT), one is able to determine the
number of electrons needed to interfere with the "which-path" information to
cause the collapse of a quantum state. |
