    "abstract": "Experiment{Fabre_1983} shows that Rydberg atoms do not pass through 1\nmicronmeter width slits if their principal quantum number is rather large(n \u003e\n60). Thus, the particle density measured after the slits is null while the wave\nfunction calculated after the slits is not. This experiment is in contradiction\nwith the Born interpretation (the square of the wave function is proportional\nto the probability density for the particle to be found at each point in\nspace). The classical interpretation of this experiment, which removes the\ncontradiction, is to suppose that if the particles do not pass, the wave\nfunction does not pass either (classical assumption).\n  An alternative interpretation of this experiment is to suppose that the wave\nfunction passes through the slits, but that the Born interpretation is not\nvalid any more in this case (alternative assumption).\n  The aim of this paper is to present an experiment testing this alternative\nassumption compared to the classical assumption.",
