SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the visualization of the guiding field in the double slit experiment, specifically comparing electron trajectories to those of photons. It is established that while the provided image depicts electron trajectories, similar visualizations for photons exist and have been derived through weak measurements. The De Broglie–Bohm theory provides a theoretical framework for understanding these phenomena, with specific references to experimental results documented in the linked study.
