Simple alternative interpretation of some quantum features

Salim Yasmineh

Published Jan 30, 2018• 0 citations

Abstract

Some quantum properties such as the behaviour of particles through a double-slit plate seem to defy common logic. According to the double-slit experiment, sequential, separate and independent impacts of particles on the screen produce an interference pattern when both slits are open and produce no such pattern when detectors are placed at the slits. Another strange phenomena concerns entanglement where the constituents of a system cannot be described independently. In this paper we conjecture a falsifiable three-dimensional-time model that fits the observed results and that seems to maximize simplicity for explaining some quantum properties without contradicting the established principles and laws of quantum mechanics.

Simple interpretation of the double-slit experiment

Salim Yasmineh

This paper aims to understand how sequential, separate and independent impacts of particles on the screen of a double-slit experiment produce an interference pattern when both slits are open and how no such pattern is produced when detectors are placed at the slits. These strange phenomena can be explained by conjecturing the existence of a certain " thickness " of time. This conjecture is falsifiable, fits the observed results and maximizes simplicity for explaining other quantum phenomena without contradicting the established principles and laws of quantum mechanics.

Internal-time in Quantum Mechanics: thickness of time

Salim Yasmineh

This paper aims to construct a falsifiable model of an internal dimension of time that fits the observed results, that maximizes simplicity for explaining different quantum phenomena such as superposition, measurement and entanglement, that does not contradict the established principles and laws of the quantum mechanics and that predicts new testable features or phenomena.

Quantum behavior in the Double Slit Experiment and the limitations of the equipment used.

Ernest Heinz

Abstract: Many problems exist in the Double Slit Experiment when you consider that the elements in the test are moving as waves. Outside of the pattern resembling peeks and troughs that overlap each other; there is no real scientific explanation on how this is taking place. In a more accurate and classical way, can we explain how the dark and light areas of the interference pattern are being made? Why is an Interference pattern being made when particles are being sent through the exercise one at a time? And how is it that through observation the Interference pattern collapses in on itself. Waves add more questions than they do answers, a very typical outcome of an incorrect solution. Maybe the unanswered questions left behind by the wave theory is a confirmation of its inaccuracy and not the mystique of its results. Rather than double down on the wave theory with time traveling particles, elements of duality, and the Copenhagen Interpretation; l reconsidered that elements tested in the double slit experiment behave as particles. But this time, I weighed the thought that these bits of matter are much smaller than previously thought. This new logic allowed particles with straight trajectories to interact with the edge of materials used in the double slit wall in a very detailed way. This created a storm of new ways to look at what is really taking place in the test; revealing the competence of the detectors utilized and the capacity of the Nonlinear Optical Crystal. Everything solved from just one idea, that quantum move as particles but on a much smaller scale. This is the enigma of the Double Slit Experiment.

A Dual and Quantum Nature

Plinio Innocenzi

The discovery of the electron and its strange properties is the cornerstone of quantum mechanics. Based on their spin properties, photons and electrons, now categorized as fermions and bosons under the Standard Model, exhibit an enigmatic dual nature of wave and particle. This property, the interpretation of which is still debated today, is supported by various experiments, as we saw in Chap. 4 . One of these, in particular, can be considered the basis of any interpretative model on the dual nature of photons and electrons, the double-slit experiment. This experiment will lead to the famous Copenhagen interpretation, which is still a key to explain quantum mechanics today. With all its incredible weirdness, the double-slit experiment is thus the basis of quantum mechanics, as we shall see in this chapter. Experiments and interpretations of the strange quantum properties of the electron have also led to the discovery of other physical phenomena seemingly impossible according to classical physics, such as the tunnel effect and quantum entanglement. These phenomena have no classical equivalent and can be explained only by resorting to quantum properties of electrons.

Double Slit Experiment Still Has Much to Offer (4): New Double Slit Experiments Violating Wave Description

Peng, Hui

Young's double slit experiments representing the mystery of quantum mechanics have been descripted by wave theories. To study the mystery, the double slit experiments were extended to the cross-double slit experiments. A description should explain all the double slit and cross-double slit experiments consistently. To test the wave description, the two postulates are proposed, which state that before passing through the double slit and before landing on the detector, photons behave as particles, but not as waves. To test the two postulates, the comprehensive double slit/cross-double slit experiments are proposed and performed. By placing shields and/or blockers near the detector/screen, the comprehensive double slit/cross-double slit experiments show that the fringes are created independently and partially, which discloses the particle nature of photons in the double slit/crossdouble slit experiments and violates the wave descriptions. The comprehensive double slit/cross-double slit experiments provide the comprehensive phenomena for developing theoretical model to study the mystery of double slit, complementarity principle, wave-particle duality, and wave theory of light.

Time-resolved double-slit interference pattern measurement with entangled photons

Piotr Leszek Kolenderski, Carmelo Scarcella, Kelsey D. Johnsen +7 more

The double-slit experiment strikingly demonstrates the wave-particle duality of quantum objects. In this famous experiment, particles pass one-by-one through a pair of slits and are detected on a distant screen. A distinct wave-like pattern emerges after many discrete particle impacts as if each particle is passing through both slits and interfering with itself. Here we present a temporally- and spatially-resolved measurement of the double-slit interference pattern using single photons. We send single photons through a birefringent double-slit apparatus and use a linear array of single-photon detectors to observe the developing interference pattern. The analysis of the buildup allows us to compare quantum mechanics and the corpuscular model, which aims to explain the mystery of single-particle interference. Finally, we send one photon from an entangled pair through our double-slit setup and show the dependence of the resulting interference pattern on the twin photon's measured state. Our results provide new insight into the dynamics of the buildup process in the double-slit experiment, and can be used as a valuable resource in quantum information applications.
