If electrons are shot through the double slit one at a time, is it observed that each electron hits randomly in one of the dense areas of an interference pattern, or is it only observed after a long time that the interference pattern emerges?
To rephrase, what I'm asking is whether a single particle hits the wall in many places at once in the form of an interference pattern, like you would observe from a single wave sent through, or whether each individual particle only hits a single random spot on the wall and the pattern emerges after many repetitions.
