Abstract
The authors give a general analysis of negative-result experiments, and argue that they do not require the hypothesis of wavefunction collapse, as suggested by other workers. They point out that the regeneration phenomenon involving neutral kaons provides an experimentally tested example of this type of measurement. They also show that the phenomenon of interrupted fluorescence in the V-configuration of atomic physics may be explained in a straightforward way without the use of collapse.
