I presented last August in San Diego. I have been following these discussions, and would like to join in. I do beam-split coincidence experiments with gamma and alpha-rays, and have accompanying theory. My work leads to the accumulation hypothesis that I argue has been poorly understood and rejected prematurely. When I beam-split a matter-wave (I use Helium alpha-rays) I can see detection pulses in two legs of the beam-splitter at rates exceeding chance. This tells me that the matter-wave can be spread out, divide like a wave and can give two detection events for a single emission event. This is not about violating energy conservation, it is about understanding a pre-loaded state at the detector. </div><div id="yiv3479688049yui_3_16_0_1_1456986264840_38094"><br></div><div id="yiv3479688049yui_3_16_0_1_1456986264840_38094">Another interesting diffraction experiment with helium supports my position:</div><div id="yiv3479688049yui_3_16_0_1_1456986264840_38094" dir="ltr"><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://xrm.phys.northwestern.edu/research/pdf_papers/1999/doak99.pdf" id="yiv3479688049yui_3_16_0_1_1456986264840_51370">http://xrm.phys.northwestern.edu/research/pdf_papers/1999/doak99.pdf</a><br></div><div id="yiv3479688049yui_3_16_0_1_1456986264840_38094" dir="ltr">They report both a particle-like non-cancellation and a wave interference signature at the detection plane.
