Understanding Quantum (Part 1): Double-Slit Experiment

Double-slit experiments have been around for over 200 years. They've been the standard for drawing the line between wave and particle. Unfortunately, since Feynman used it as a thought experiment on quantum physics in the 1960s, things got weird.

Best explanation of the double slit experiment I've ever seen! In the past, I always missed the part where each individual electron passing through a slit is detected using photons

[smokiedapoo]

Science asylum has explained the experiment to me in minutes what I spent years trying to figure out watching physicists trying to explain Now I understand why Einstein thought it was spooky! Thank you!

[fusiontricycle]

He belongs in the millions of subscribers, up there with Vsauce

[philippelhaus]

Why the hell have his videos so little view counts??? I have seen stuff WAY lower quality but with more views. Not right!

[vickdelonge]

Im so glad you have 35k subs already! Happily subbed since you had 20K! you are amazing!

[LifeHacks-puol]

I heard about this years ago. It still blows my mind.

[mohammedal-haddad]

Dude you are making me an addict to your channel.

[eishuno]

binging your videos in this lockdown period. You are a really awesome educator. Love from India.

[deanbutler]

Ahhh and we move on to the ol'spooky at a distance? looking forward to part 2.Graet work Nick and team. ;)

[VejmR]

The best explanation about double split i have ever found ☺️

[anuj]

My favourite channel on Youtube! Great work Nick. (btw, is your second name really Lucid or is that a pun? 😜)

[Dexter-A]

Please do a video about quantum entanglement

[johnfarris]

I had to give him his own playlist on my page. So people can see that I set him apart. This is Science!

[Manikese]

I miss watching these videos. They are so good.

[kkkaybeeee]

Hey Nick can you answer a question about the delayed choice quantum eraser experiment? Without the delayed choice piece in place you get an interference pattern. But if you place the delayed choice mechanism 100k miles away (giving time for lots of photons to hit the detectors) will you first see an interference pattern until the entangled pairs reach the delayed choice detectors, then would the interference pattern instantly become two clumps?

You are crazy!






But what is normal?



Keep up the crazynes! Love it!

[ArupRoy_fromPlanetEarth]

Can you please do a video on "Delayed-choice quantum eraser" ?

[daffidavit]

Give it a little "crazy" time. The cream always rises to the top. BTW, the videos from the new guy are always the best. As time goes on and the "author" grows, things seem to change. Now is the best time to watch Lucid's videos, before he gets too famous. His best stuff is right now. And it is great stuff IMHO.

[sauravti]

Hello sir, I have a question that what's happen to friges obtain when double slit experiment done with sound wave

[sagarsharma-qfhs]

Thank god you came back to quantum mechanics!!!
