I was wondering to what extent we understand the self interference of particles in the double slit experiment. More specifically, I have heard that a single particle, acting as a wave can pass through both slits at once and that is what causes the interference. This explanation seems a bit fishy to me since it seems that if you just had two slits separated on the other side by a metal sheet you could split an electron or even a buckyball into two waves which should be impossible. What is actually known about what is going on with PSI?
