      abstract     = {We analyze a single-particle Mach-Zehnder interferometer
                      experiment in which the path length of one arm may change
                      (randomly or systematically) according to the value of an
                      external two-valued variable x, for each passage of a
                      particle through the interferometer. Quantum theory predicts
                      an interference pattern that is independent of the sequence
                      of the values of x. On the other hand, corpuscular models
                      that reproduce the results of quantum optics experiments
                      carried out to date show a reduced visibility and a shift of
                      the interference pattern depending on the details of the
                      sequence of the values of x. The proposed experiment will
                      show that: (1) it can be described by quantum theory, and
                      thus not by the current corpuscular models, or (2) it cannot
                      be described by quantum theory but can be described by the
                      corpuscular models or variations thereof, or (3) it can
                      neither be described by quantum theory nor by corpuscular
                      models. Therefore, the proposed experiment can be used to
                      determine the extent to which quantum theory provides a
                      description of observed events beyond the usual statistical
                      level.},
