So, if I understand correctly, where you make the observation is important: there's something like a gradient blending of the apparent "either, or" and "both" results, dependent on where you make your observation/measurement. The closer to the slits, the closer to the single path result; the...
Hi Bill.
Thanks. I'll read the paper, but I assume that the intended audience is versed physicists, so it'll probably lose me at many point.
I was hoping there might be a Feynman-like answer to go along with the mathematics.
Thanks, Stevie, but not really.
I was trying to look at it this way: the back plate is, in essence, also an observation that asks the question "which way?", and if you ask the question when - or after, I suppose - the particle has reached the plate, then the answer is "both".
However, It...
Hi, can smart people please assist me with understanding something: why doesn't the "final" observation at the back screen create the same kind of effect as an observation made before the particle hits the back screen?
Simple term please; no PhD here. Thanks.
