Re: Examining the Slit Experiment

Trying to understand what you're doing so here goes:

Why?

This is not a facetious question: I'm trying to get you to be explicit about what bothers you about Quantum Mechanics. Knowing you, I know that this is probably much more sophisticated than "it just doesn't make sense from my macroscopic experience of the world."

Neither Classical physics, nor Quantum physics give a satisfactory explanation (theory) of matter.
What makes Quantum theory's explanation unsatisfactory?

I think anyone who's studied it will agree its hard to grok that is well attested to by Feynman, and many others. There are certainly unknown boundaries of the standard model, and it definitely is hole prone when it comes to trying to integrate gravity, but claiming that its description of matter is incomplete is attacking it at its strongest and best-supported-by-data point!

So expound a bit KAC: what's your beef?

A wavy particle,

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
