How Does the Two Slit Experiment Illustrate Quantum Duality?

[bhobba]

After abit of research is a photon just a form of dark light waves ?

No.

Correctly - its an excitation of the quantum EM field - but whether that leaves you any the wiser is another matter.

The following would be a good place to start:

I mean the photons are nothing but elecromagnetic waves ... Which is a form of light isn't it ?

Its more complex than that and tied up with Quantum Field Theory which is really not a beginner area.

That said the book I mentioned previously makes a fair fist of it.

I'll read the book thanks:)

im just trying to get a closer understanding of the building blocks ( quanta ) of gods creation :)its important to me , but i thought i got that through my first post :)q?... Do you fear the possibility of discovering with "ultra sub-atomic quantascopes" that you may find the worlds building blocks of life amount to nothing but space ?

i made the "ultra sub-atomic quantascope" up for those who didn't notice :)

A couple of days ago i stumble across the two slit vid on youtube and entanglement.

before this day i thought quantum physics was just some kind time travel mumbo jumbo ... I am sure you get my level of noobieness from this :)

ok questions if you would be so kind :)
( don't forget the noobieness ).

1: does the proton wave collapse through subconscious observation or mechanic photon detectors?

2: does the quantum entanglement of the photon being in 2 places at the same time mean that the photon can be in all places ... All the time ?

3:does the two slit experiment mean we know light is a wave but when observed it isn't ? And is this called duality ( two realitys ) ?thank you :)
Ps... I struggled answering the e=mc² question when i signed up for this site lol...that's how noobie i am :)

thanks for your help :)

I don't fear progress.

There have been ideas about that matter is like a knot in space-time - they may be true - or not - who knows - that's what research is for.

Thanks

good luck with the research:)

and the " ultra sub-atomic quantascope" :)

Is the colours from my tv hitting my eyes in small packets ? ( photons of quanta?

Do not, however, conclude from this that the light is stream of photons traveling from the TV to your eye. It's not.

Is light shining through glass a simple example of quantum tunnling?

No.

At the beginner level Feynmans book is the best place to start investigating that one:

Looking at your questions I really think it would be a good idea to read some basic stuff like what I mentioned before doing any more posts - you will get a lot more out of it that way.

Thanks

I agree with Bill - I even listed a lot of books you could consult - in case you missed it: https://www.physicsforums.com/threa...riment-help-please.789247/page-2#post-4957427

Thank you :)

Someone said light shining through a glass is a separate phenomena.

im trying to get my head round entanglement first lol

but thanks again :)

Iv learned a lot about light in past day or tw
the frequencys of colours and how the lower the frequency the lower the energy and something to do with Old red distant light :)

very interesting ... Thanks ;)
