Exploring The Double-Slit Experiment: Quantum Mystery & Beyond Reality | Episode 1

Welcome to our captivating series on the top experiments of quantum mechanics! In this inaugural episode, we dive into the world of the double-slit experiment.

In this video, we bring you an accessible explanation of the double-slit experiment, unravelling the mysteries of quantum behaviour. Whether you're a science enthusiast or a curious learner, this video will leave you in awe of the strange and counterintuitive phenomena that govern our universe at the quantum level.

When we introduce a detector to determine which slit the particles pass through, something extraordinary happens. The interference pattern disappears, and the particles behave more like classical particles, following a definite path through one slit or the other. The act of observation or measurement collapses the wave-like behavior and reveals the particle nature of these entities.

Subscribe to our channel and embark on a thrilling journey through the realms of quantum mechanics. Stay tuned for more videos exploring the top experiments in this captivating field that continues to shape our understanding of the fundamental nature of reality.

I enjoyed this video but I have a few questions: 1) How wide are the slits compared to an electron? 2) What is their separation in terms of the size of an electron? 3) Can the electron gun aim accurately at either of, or in between, the slits?

It gets even weirder. If you try to see which slit the photon has passed through AFTER it has passed through, the same thing is observed.
It’s weird because that would suggest that a measurement done in the future can affect the past.

What about the triple slit experiment 🤔

Today I am going to ignore this AI video.

If you have (a+b) and (a-b) then you can work out a and b. Or if you have (a+b) and a you can work out b. So various combinations of (a+b), (a-b), a, b give you full knowledge. Also if you have 2 vectors A, B then (A+B) is at right angles to (A-B).
I wonder if you can mash those ideas together to understand wave-particle duality and entanglement.
It could all be very simple, I suppose.
