Has the double slit experiment ever been performed with an adjacent reflection? With quantum weirdness I'm curious as to whether the reflection would give the same results as the actual apparatus as to which slit the particle wen through.

This sounds similar to Lloyd's mirror: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lloyd's_mirror
