The Infamous Double Slit Experiment Videos

Jul 6, 2008 - I have never read anything that stupid before.You get EPIC FAIL status.

Jul 6, 2008 - I've read something more stupid, your comment

Jul 6, 2008 - That's not actually true. Look into "delayed choice" double slit experiment in which the detectors were kept in place (hence the interaction at the slit) but the information gathered from the detector is either viewed or erased. The final pattern made by the electrons is viewed only after choosing to see or discard the detector data and the final pattern seems to depend not upon the interaction with the detector, but whether the information is used or not (whether or not we know!)

Jul 6, 2008 - just a wild eyed idea,cuz i've had a beer or 3...the experiment,which i've known about for quite a few years now, supposses that "light" is "matter"...what if its NOT "matter"? hence,"odd" results in experiments like this?...right off the bat it assumes that "light" is electrons="matter"...either our idea of matter could be flawed or the idea of "light" as matter is flawed?....i know theres a physicist out there...help me out!...but couldn't that explain the inconsistency?

Cromwell523 Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - light is not electrons and not matter. matter cannot move with lightspeed. but in some cases light acts like matter. it seems like light splits into photons. a light-package if you want, which has a certain amount of energy depending on the frequenzy. however theoreticly all pieces of matter show this interference. the problem in recognizing this is, that heavy things have a much greater kinetic energy than an electron for example. this means that the wavelength is really short....

Cromwell523 Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - ... so the interference could only bee seen a great distance away from the slit which makes the interference impossible. the size of the slit is also a problem. this video is unfortunately not very exact. in fact there is already an interference with only one slit. do some research. this topic is really interesting :) the thing with the measurement-device is also not exactly right. it was measured by polarisation-filters and i have an explanation for that. have a nice day

Jul 6, 2008 - wow what a fuck head you are

Cromwell523 Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - thanks nickkristin :P

Cromwell523 Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - in simple words: everything has its wave-characteristic. the smaller a thing is the more it behaves like a wave

Cromwell523 Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - and yes. the explanations in this video are pseudoscientific bullcrap

JamesTheBlueWolf Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - that is most interesting.

pantherstudios Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - They didn't assume light was matter. They didn't propel photons through the two slits, they propelled electrons, which are made of matter.

msaasha Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - It couldn't have changed simply because it was being observed.

81Sparhawk Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - Amazing... and explained very well, too!!!

fedoracigar Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - I don't get it

SirFranzOoTMM Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - Why didn't they use protons or neutrons?

soldersucker Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - I dont know what you people are arguing about. This has been PROVEN 100% wrong. It is the interaction with the electron detectors and electron that collapses the wave form. This has been PROVEN. You cant SEE electrons with your eyes like in this STUPID video. Because photons are too big you can use light to see electrons. For an electron to be observed it must INTERACT with something (a detector) and it is this interaction that collapses the wave form NOT because someone is simply "observing" it

Jul 6, 2008 - I will be watching this 13 days ago as soon as I have a minute.

Jul 6, 2008 - dude, wtf that is weird, and queer... lol j/k about the queer part, it just rhymed

robroydude Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - that's right.

msaasha Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - that's right. Yes it did change or no it didn't.

chumfilter Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - Are you saying waveforms don't collapse moment after moment? I thought waveforms endlessly collapse creating each moment in time, observer or not.
