Response to Stuart Kauffman: The Measurement Problem in Quantum Mechanics

Carl Peterson

Richard Feynman, a 1965 Nobel Prize winner in physics, quoting an unknown philosopher, said: “It is necessary for the very existence of science that the same conditions always produce the same results.” And Feynman's reply: “Well, they don't.” Double-slit experiments with both slits open and the wave interference pattern created by electrons falling on a screen behind the slits speak volumes to those two statements and the interpretive problem created by the non-deterministic behavior of microscopic matter. Quantum mechanics (QM) with its successes over the last 85 years has created the information age, and with insights into nature has given humans an economy concentrated with products based on quantum technology. All this even with questions about the fundamental aspects of measurement in the quantum world still being debated! Discussing the measurement aspect of QM does not require a physics background where physics scholars join other scholarly disciplines engaged in gaining knowledge about the reality of the one world of human experience. The necessary tools for discussion are imagination, speculation, and curiosity. But for a new credible interpretation of the measurement problem, quantum training or a quantum theoretician is required.

Novel Universal Phenomena of Single Slit, Double Slit, Cross-double Slit and Triple Slit Experiments --- Curved Patterns and Orientation-Dependence of Patterns

hui peng

Abstract Young’s double slit experiments express the mystery of quantum mechanics. To explore the mystery, varieties of the double slit and cross-double slit experiments were performed. In this article, we show novel universal phenomena: (1) the fringes of the interference patterns of the double slit/cross-double slit/triple slit experiments can be distributed along curves, and the curvatures depend on the orientations of the diaphragms; (2) the characteristics of the interference patterns of the double slit/cross-double slit/triple slit experiments depend on the orientation of the diaphragm, specifically, on which axis the diaphragm rotates around, the rotating angle and how to rotate, clockwise or counterclockwise; and (3) in the cross-double slit experiments, the interference patterns created by the tilt double slits tend to incline towards the axis that is perpendicular to the axis the diaphragm rotates around. The single slit experiments have the same phenomena that, due to the rotation of the diaphragm around different axis, either the patterns are curved or the patterns expanded. We show the novel universal phenomena of the single slit/double slit/cross-double slit/triple slit experiments, which may be utilized in the applications of, for example, the double slit.
