Yeah, the paper I linked doesn’t have anything on experimental detection of the violation. I offered it as support for my claim that the math for energy conservation doesn’t work out in collapse interpretations. Do you agree that it shows that this claim is true? Anyway, here’s a paper that does discuss experimental consequences.
Again, my point only applies to objective collapse theories, not instrumentalist theories that use collapse as a calculational device (like the original Copenhagen interpretation). The big difference between these two types of theories is that in the former there is a specified size threshold or interaction type which triggers collapse. Instrumentalist theories involve no such specification. This is why objective collapse theories are empirically distinct from MWI but instrumentalist theories are not.
I have skimmed through the paper, but I don’t see any mention of how such a hypothetical violation can be detected experimentally.
