Testing Quantum Erasure and Reversible Quantum Measurement with Holladay's Simple Experiment

Schrödinger's continuous differential equation, which, as far as we know, describes the time development of all physical systems, from microscopic to cosmological, is time-reversal invariant. It is the process of measurement of a system that von Neumann found to be irreversible, and may so account for the distinction between past and future. Developed over the last thirty years, quantum eraser theory has claimed that some quantum measurements are reversible. Holladay proposed a very simple double-slit quantum eraser experiment, hitherto never performed, which he said would refute von Neumann's measurement description and support the quantum erasure thesis. Now, that experiment can actually be implemented with inexpensive, easily accessible equipment. Remarkably, results of the experiment refute quantum eraser theory and confirm von Neumann's measurement reduction process instead
