Thanks for the sketch and info. One of the things that is possibly confusing is "Bohmian mechanics" versus the "Bohm interpretation" that Bohm's colleague Basil Hiley presents in the paper that I referenced.
One thing that could help me out: Can you look at the particle trajectories they show...
Note that I am using the term "Bohm interpretation" as the authors do, to distinguish from "Bohmian mechanics" (see their footnote at the bottom of page 3). In the "Background" part of my post, I am only regurgitating what the authors wrote. The author Basil Hiley was a close colleague of Bohm...
This is easy. Instead of mirrors M1 and M2, place the detectors D1 and D2 at those locations and evaluate the beam splitter performance. Assume that D1 replaces M1. The beam splitter that reflects 70% of the time will put 70% of the photons at D1. The beam splitter that transmits 70% of the time...
I've tried my best to search for any actual experiments, and I can't find any. I think the setup I'm describing is so simple and "boring" that nobody is expecting anything to happen. All experiments with one 50:50 beam splitter would give the same results for both interpretations. I can't find...
Look at the diagram in the Wikipedia link to the Wheeler's Delayed Choice experiment, scroll down to the section "Simple interferometer" and look at the diagram of the interferometer in the "open" position with one beam splitter. Look at the paths taken to the two detectors. As far as I know...
Background
I was reading a paper, Delayed Choice Experiments and the Bohm Approach by Basil Hiley and Robert Callaghan. The Wheeler's Delayed Choice experiment was explained in a way that was very easy to understand. An interesting point in this paper is that when a Mach–Zehnder interferometer...
