The Double Slit Experiment

Examining the implications of the double slit experiment and its variants.

The double slit experiment is one of the strangest experiments in quantum mechanics:

Max Planck
Physicist, Father of Quantum Theory

"In all my research I have never come across matter. To me the term matter implies a bundle of energy which is given form by an intelligent spirit."

Niels Bohr
Physicist, Quantum Mechanics Pioneer

"Everything we call real is made of things that cannot be regarded as real."

Werner Heisenberg
Physicist, Quantum Mechanics Pioneer

"Both matter and radiation possess a remarkable duality of character, as they sometimes exhibit the properties of waves, at other times those of particles. Now it is obvious that a thing cannot be a form of wave motion and composed of particles at the same time - the two concepts are too different"

Brian Greene
Physicist, Mathematician, String Theorist, Author

"Somehow, though, the photons always get it right. Whenever the detector is on—again, even if the choice to turn it on is delayed until long after a given photon has passed through the beam splitter—the photon acts fully like a particle... It’s as though the photons have a “premonition” of the experimental situation they will encounter farther downstream, and act accordingly. It’s as if a consistent and definite history becomes manifest only after the future to which it leads has been fully settled."
