Re: Do I Misunderstand The Double Slit Experiment
[ QUOTE ]
I know I know. But the experiment that Shahriar Afshar performed, actually "looked" without looking.
You will have to look it up yourself to understand it.
But in principle he actually did this:
- Send photons through slits
- Look what slit the photon came through (without actually looking). (hint, this is the clever part)
- Observe if they make a point particle pattern or an interference pattern.
And he still got an interference pattern.

I will look this up. Thank you for this information Muppet.
