What exactly is a measurement device and how does it carry out a measurement?
For instance, in the double slit experiment, you always hear about particle/wave duality. When it's not being measured it behaves like a wave but when a measuring device is placed by the slits, it behaves like a particle.
What makes up this measuring device and exactly how does it interact with the system to carry out a measurement?
