    A double double split experiment?

    If you set a detector to monitor the first slit in your experiment you observe particles. What happens if you set a second slit with no detector for the particles to go through, will you observe waves or particles in the second slit experiment?

    What are the implications of electrons splitting into smaller quasi-particles?

    http://www.popsci.com/science/article/2012-04/first-time-electrons-are-observed-splitting-smaller-quasi-particles Sorry if this is old news or already posted somewhere, but could someone tell me more about this? (I know QM but not QFT, so if you can use QM terms that might be helpful). Thanks
