Who knows? Perhaps the De Broglie-Bohm enthousiast can get some further insights from this experiments allowing them to e.g. predict subtle patterns in interference phenomena that shouldn't be there acording to orthodox quantum mechanics.

De Broglie-Bohm theory looks to me a bit like the old aether theory of electromagnetism that preceded special relativity. Strictly speaking there can be devations from the Born rule, but they always assume that there is so-called "quantum equlibrium" making the Born rule is valid. So, my (non-expert) opinion is that you should look here first, why can't you device some experiment where you are most likely going to violate this assumption?

This is also explained here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_non-equilibrium

"The existence of quantum non-equilibrium states has not been verified experimentally; quantum non-equilibrium is so far a theoretical construct. The relevance of quantum non-equilibrium states to physics lies in the fact that they can lead to different predictions for results of experiments, depending on whether the De Broglie–Bohm theory in its stochastic form or the Copenhagen interpretation is assumed to describe reality. (The Copenhagen interpretation, which stipulates the Born rule a priori, does not foresee the existence of quantum non-equilibrium states at all.) That is, properties of quantum non-equilibrium can make certain classes of Bohmian theories falsifiable according to the criterion of Karl Popper."

Hi all,

I would like to know what people here make of this...
