I would like to do a single slit experiment that has not been done to my 
knowledge. I would like have two triggers for the source emitter. One dead, one 
live. Each observer (it may take a few hundred) would choose a trigger but not 
know if they had sent a photon through or not. I want to see if the 
interference pattern that builds up is linked to the knowledge of the observer 
that more than one photon has been sent through the slit. If there is no 
interference then that would mean the wavefunction is real and not just a 
mathematical tool.
