Hi everybody,
I'm trying to simulate double slit experiment for electron (or any particles) by monte carlo method.but there is something interesting here which I explain it for you.
I supposed that electron will pass one of the splits in each time (by same chance) with random angle in X direction (according to uncertainty principle).results was classically predicted and violate experiment results!
Feynman have reported this result would be appear if you want to know where the electrons go.There are some electrons which pass two split at the same time but how can show it in monte carlo simulation?
should i just consider wave properties of electron (I mean wave function) or ... ?
(But I really want to understand this without using wave function)

Thanks a lot.

If you are going to incorporate the uncertainty principle you must understand the wave function. If an electron is regarded as a particle, which it no longer is, there is no uncertainty.

I am not sure if this falls under classical physics or quantum physics or somewhere else (so feel free to put it in the right section), but is there any micro state of the universe one can think of which if evolved under the current laws of nature, inevitably results in outcomes such as a table levitating? That example is just a random one I decided to choose but I'm really asking about any event that would seem like a "miracle" to the ordinary person (i.e. any event that doesn't seem to...
