Quantum superpositions and definite perceptions:envisaging new feasible experimental tests

Abstract

We call attention on the fact that recent unprecedented technological achievements, in particular in the field of quantum optics, seem to open the way to new experimental tests which might be relevant both for the foundational problems of quantum mechanics as well as for investigating the perceptual processes.
