Research: Event-based simulation
Single-photon experiments
We have demonstrated that one universal event-based corpuscular model for the interaction of photons
with matter suffices to explain the interference and correlation phenomena that are observed when individual
photons are detected one by one. The event-based corpuscular model gives a unified description of multiple-beam
fringes of a plane parallel plate, single-photon Mach-Zehnder interferometer, Wheeler’s delayed choice, photon tunneling, quantum eraser, two-beam
interference, double-slit, Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Bohm and Hanbury Brown-Twiss experiments.
More information about this simulation method and its applications can be found on these very old webpages DLM (no longer maintained)
