How Does the Two Slit Experiment Illustrate Quantum Duality?

In summary: That's a tricky question. We can observe something, but we can also observe the effect of our observation on the thing we are observing. So in a way, we are both observing it.

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 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 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
Bill

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 two:)
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 ;)
