I invite you to watch this video. Since I have no way of doing the experiment and no one I know has, my question is, Do you think that what they say in it is true?
Wouldn't that experiment be conclusive on whether consciousness is involved? And really differentiate opinions from facts? I mean...
Just to clarify:
I was asking about the more technical question, regarding whether awareness from the results is required in order to collapse the wave-function. Although I enjoyed the more philosophical discussion saying that consciousness is needed for there to exist physics at all.
It seems...
Thanks to all for your replies. You've been very helpful. I study engineering and am new to Quantum Mechanics. I'm glad I asked because I was starting to get a mystical idea of the double-slit experiment, which thankfully I'm done with. Nevertheless I find Quantum Mechanics exiting and...
Hello:
I know it's a rather subjective title. But I am no expert in the subject and I've read a lot of information in the Internet that is contradictory.
I have read that the collapse of the wave function requires interaction with an observer. But is that collapse in any way related to the...
Hello Stevie,
Thanks for answering. I'll look for the book you mentioned it seems very interesting. I hadn't heard about those results but I'll look into them.
Regarding my question, let me further explain myself.
I have read about the double slit experiment, and done it myself. To see...
Hello!
I have a question?
Does anyone know if scientists have tried to run the electrons through the double slit, record the particles that go through each slit, and before looking at the results, looking at the pattern on the screen. And THEN doing the EXACT OPPOSITE of what the screen...
