| Nov 20, 2022 at 17:06 | comment | added | Hearth | Congratulations! You've stumbled across one of the main unsolved problems in physics right now, namely that general relativity and the theory of spacetime just refuses to work alongside our current understanding of quantum mechanics, and vice versa. You just can't treat time as "just another dimension" in quantum mechanics and have predictions match observations, yet having time be just another dimension is crucial to general relativity, and yet both of these theories are independently very well tested and have great predictive power at their relevant scales. | |
| Nov 20, 2022 at 1:11 | comment | added | Filip Milovanović | I guess a good way to think about this is that, very roughly speaking, these sorts of experiments revealed that "particles" are not little balls zooming around as we originally envisioned them, but rather these spatially extended objects that give rise to wave-like fields that somehow have the ability to produce localized phenomena that for the most part look like tiny particles to us, and this ability is controlled by the peaks & troughs of the wave. The irrelevance of the interval is then due to each run of the experiment producing roughly the same wavelike pattern. | |
| Nov 20, 2022 at 1:10 | comment | added | Filip Milovanović | "the irrelevance of intervals when it comes to the appearance of the interference pattern" - can you clarify? Do you mean the intervals between sending two consecutive electrons? | |
