Abstract

It is conventionally believed that Bohm's quanturn theory yields all the predictions of standard quantum theory. However, in this paper, we show that the transmission and reflection coefficients (i.e., probabilities) predicted by Bohm's quanturn theory can be different from those predicted by standard quantum theory for energy eigenstates of the step barrier.
