    B How do orthogonal waves interfere?

    Thank you for your replies! But the point I was trying to formulate is that the probability wave for the location of the photon could split, so it has 50% in front of D1 and 50% in front of D2. And in the moment of the detection it is "decided" where the photon is, so that it is only detected by...

    B How do orthogonal waves interfere?

    Yes, this one: Excuse me, the labeling is in german (Spiegel = mirror, Strahlteiler = beam splitter, Weg = path) D1 registers the photon in 50% of the cases, so does D2. The explanation is, that the light must behave as a particle and doesn't behave as a wave. I can't see the reason, why the...

    B How do orthogonal waves interfere?

    How do two highly directional, orthogonal light beams (or any other kind of waves) with the same frequency interfere with each other?
