Hi Nugatory, Thanks for this, understood, So essentially the size of the fuzz (or cloud) of the electron is covering both slits. when unobserved the resulting pattern made after repetitive firing results in a wave like form on the back plate but when the slits are observed to see which path the...

Hi BvU Thanks for your reply, in the document you sent it mentions the a machine gun is spraying the area with bullets, i was kind of imagining a rifle fixed to a single point, so all bulleta fired always follow the same path. Is my understanding of how the single electron travels from the...

Hi, I am a newby so please excuse my ignorance. With reference to the single electron double slit experiment, one thing has been bugging me. The videos that illustrate the particle or wave behaviour do not tell us how the single fired electrons are directed to either the left or right slit...
