Do we see the Bohmian trajectory of a single particle in a cloud chamber?

Update: 2018-03-13

Description

17. One of the main devices for measuring particle trajectories are cloud chambers and the like. Do we see the Bohmian trajectory of a single particle there?

This series is aimed at answering FAQs about Bohmian mechanics and is mainly intended for students. The text is available at

By Christian Beck, Robert Grummt, Florian Hoffmann, Sören Petrat, and Nicola Vona.
We are grateful to Martin Oelker who played the asking student, and to Nils Hansen and Stephan Kulla who filmed the videos.
