Delayed choice in half silvered mirror or double slit
For now, I am focussing only on the half silvered mirror:
there are two paths/arms that are created.
My question is:
1. If a detector/obstruction is placed on either of the two paths after the photon has passed but before its hit the final detector
- does the interference disappear? ...i would think ofcourse it does
2. If a detector/obstruction is placed after it has hit the final detector but not been measured yet
- does the interference disappear?
Please let me know if there are any clarifications required or if you want to make some corrections to the above experiment
