Consequently, the interference effects have nothing to do with the existence of diachronic identity between the particles participating in the scattering process. difference between the two cases is explained by reference to the existence or nonexistence of the facts of diachronic identity between particles before and after the ./cache/work_4s7db3tg4ngjbpj6lv6cw6h55y.pdf ./txt/work_4s7db3tg4ngjbpj6lv6cw6h55y.txt
