Comment on The duality of particles
underisk@lemmy.ml 9 months agoYeah, if you alter the experiment to try and prove duality then of course you can do that because light is both. The classic double slit experiment, as commonly understood and illustrated above, just proves the wave part though. You’re not going to see just two lines from shining a flashlight through a couple holes.

The illustration above explicitly shows someone “looking” at the slits, implying the use of a measuring device.

Eyes are a measuring device and using them here would not result in two lines. Using a different measuring device produces a different result. Nothing I’ve said is counter to anything you’ve said.
