2inquisitive, The electrons will form a distribution over the entire wall behind the two slits, so putting a detector behind each one will lead to...
CANGAS: A little spellchecking can go a long way. Your semiclassical attempt to understand quantum mechanics is outdated. It makes no sense to say...
Heisenberg's book, as I recall (can't seem to find my copy around), was mostly listing out the experimental evidence regarding quantum mechanics, and...
Cangas, You have quoted a book written by Werner Heisenberg in, if I recall, the 1920s. We have a slightly more revised interpretation of quantum...
I think PM pretty much summed up anything useful I might have had to say. The key feature is that an electron is something completely separate...
^^^^^ Ah, your smugness belies your wisdom. Well, OP, basically here's all there is to it. Particles behave more like waves than localized...
CANGAS, The problem with this is that the most physical way to explain this is with wave functions, but I cannot talk mathematically about wave...
The electron is going through "both slits at the same time". In fact, unless you measure which slit it's going through, it does not even make sense...
Yes. Electrons in free space exhibit wave properties. The slits just create interference patterns which are really telling of wave-like properties.
Nothing groundbreaking, just that hey subatomic particles aren't what we classically think of as little marbles flying around, they're more like wave...
You can have a delocalized wave pass through both slits at the same time, right? Really, it's not that it's passing through both slits at the same...
Fairfield, Magnetism is, in the classical framework, a relativistic effect of moving charges. It's the same for a current as it is in a...
You can't really ignore the spin states, since a spin-3/2 particle will have a different ground state from a spin-1/2.
There's actually a result in QFT about massive photons, which concludes with the Yukawa potential being the correct one for the electrostatic...
He posted plenty of physics about three pages ago. You just refused to acknowledge any of it. Oh, and fuck you too.
MacM, You really need to realize that you've been presented with solutions to every question you've asked as accepted by the contemporary physics...
SRT is not applicable in this scenario. Why? Because of the accelerating reference frame. It breaks the reciprocity. What you're doing is like trying...
The reciprocity you speak of is not valid if one reference frame accelerates because then you have a preferred reference frame. You won't see the...
Pot, this is kettle, I just thought I'd inform you that you're black. Special relativity works fine for inertial reference frames. It is, however,...
Not if the limits are constants and not functions of the other variables that remain to be integrated.
