Abstract
An experiment, feasible on a laboratory scale, to test the de Broglie tired-photon model is presented. This quantum model states that the photon, just like any quantum particle, is a real physical entity with inner complex structure. While traveling from a distant star the photon interacts with the medium, losing energy. The test of this aging possibility for the photon has deep implications both for the very foundations of quantum mechanics and for the model of the Big-Bang for the universe. The model allows a non ad hoc explanation for the cosmological redshift without Doppler effect.
