I recently watched a youtube video, featuring a guy who is no less than a "youtube sensation". This guy is actally a famous physicist:
After watching the video, I have to admit that I am even more confused about the real nature of light. Does anyone of you have any ideas? I am looking for a simple understanding of light? (I believe it was Richard Feynman who famously said: "If you can't explain it simple enough, you don't understand it".😎
Exactly! However you mention that prior to detection, the particles exist in a superposition of different possible positions and momenta, which is described by a wave function. This is just only one possible explanation that has nothing to do with the double slit experiment itself. Can you explain why not the particles don't have a very specific position and momentum? Just because there is no way for us to know the position and momentum of an electron this doesn't mean that it doesn't have well defined ones.
