  1. Experimental parameter px=0 is obtained by fitting the interference pattern curves measured by detecting the photons in coincidence, keeping fixed the signal detector (det. 1) at x = 0 (x = xπ) and scanning the idler detector (det. 2). Predicted values ppredicted are the parameters we attempt to implement.
