Abstract
The two-slit experiment is one of the most important in quantum physics. The particle-wave duality of particles is purportedly established on the basis of this experiment and others similar to it. Conventional quantum theory attributes the observed wavelike properties to the particles themselves, and not to the space through which they travel. Recently the wavelike properties of particles in the two-slit experiment have been modelled using a random map dynamical system. This model requires only particle attributes and the interference effects can be explained by postulating the existence of a complicated underlying space. Based on this model, a simple experiment is suggested which could produce results different from what is predicted by quantum mechanics. This would provide evidence that (1) particles behave as particles and that (2) the complex nature of the space through which the particles travel plays a role in the observed interference effects of the two-slit experiment.
