Aren't the mirrors incorrectly orientated?
Yes, the one is, top left corner. -Brak710101
No, all four are. Plus there was no distinction made between half-silvered plane mirrors and fully silvered plane mirrors. Also, the bomb detector needs to lie on the lower path. I've uploaded a correction. Thoreaulylazy 17:17, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
By 'device' you mean the upper right hand half-silvered mirror? also when listing the scenario explaining which interferon (C or D) recieves or doew not recieve a photon might help. Stupid people like me need half-steps. I'm guessing in scenario (1) no photon is observed, in (2) D observes photon, (3) D observes photon, and (4) C observes photon?

I hope it's clearer now. I created nested If branches to explain what all happens under each possibility. Thoreaulylazy 20:06, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
