THE DOUBLE SLIT DECEPTION How the Structure of Space Guides Matter and Light: The Topological Solution to Dualism

Abstract

ABSTRACT For over a century, the double-slit experiment has represented the heart of the quantum mystery. It suggests that matter and energy can behave as both corpuscles and waves, or exist in two places simultaneously. This article challenges the probabilistic interpretation by proposing a deterministic solution based on Elastic Tensor Mechanics (ETM). By redefining the particle not as an isolated point but as an Extended Tensorial System (the Spider and Web analogy), we demonstrate that interference is a precise mechanical interaction between the object's core and its structural field. The article addresses in detail both the case of massive particles (Neutron, Molecules) and the critical case of the Photon, explaining how the lattice tension acts as a "guiding wave," finally resolving the paradox of why macroscopic projectiles do not undergo interference. Keywords: Double Slit, Elastic Tensor Mechanics (ETM), Extrinsic Gravity, Octahedral Soliton, Photon, Wave-Particle Duality, Tensorial Monism.

DOUBLE SLIT EXPERIMENT AND WAVE-PARTICLE DUALITY

V. Abbasov

Abstract The double-slit experiment is a classic experiment that presents the clearest manifestation of wave-particle duality, one of the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics. The double-slit experiment still remains the phenomenon that demonstrates wave-particle duality at the most fundamental level. This phenomenon quantitatively and conceptually demonstrates that microscopic objects can behave like both waves and particles at the same time. This article provides an in-depth analysis of the physical nature of dualism, the mechanism of formation of the interference pattern, and the impact of the act of observation on the dynamics of quantum systems. The need for a new perspective on this topic is due to the fact that the current uncertainty in the interpretation of quantum reality has not yet been completely eliminated, and the boundaries between classical and quantum behavior in microscopic objects are still being explored. The results presented here restructure the deep mechanisms of the interference picture, more clearly frame the relationship between observation and wavefunction collapse, and provide a quantum. Since the article attempts to provide a complete answer to the mechanism of the formation of wave-particle duality, extensive space is given to sections such as historical development, theoretical models, modern research, etc. New approaches to this phenomenon have been developed using modern research and string theory. As a result, a new mathematical expression has been proposed that explains the reasons for the initial emergence of wave-particle duality, and is also important for string theory. The article explains the measurement problem with a more effective physical structure and ontological model.

Demystifying Superposition and Wave-Particle Duality: The Double-Slit Experiment in the Absolute Medium Framework

SREEMAN BARUA

The double-slit experiment stands as the cornerstone of quantum mysticism, often interpreted as evidence for particles existing in multiple places simultaneously or consciousness collapsing reality. Within the Absolute Medium (AM) Model, this experiment ceases to be a probabilistic paradox and becomes a deterministic, fluid-dynamic interaction between a moving excitation and the universal energetic net. We demonstrate that what standard physics calls “wave-particle duality” is actually “core-wake duality”: a localized topological defect (the core) moving through an ultra-dense elastic substrate generates a physical wave field (the wake) that interferes, guiding the core along paths of least resistance. All variations of the experiment— which-way measurements, delayed choice, quantum eraser—receive mechanical explanations grounded in the medium’s properties. This framework eliminates the need for superposition, wavefunction collapse, or observer-created reality, replacing them with the coherent dynamics of a continuous medium.

H-SET：Space Medium Explanation of the Double-Slit Interference Experiment: A Quantitative Scientific Brief of the Huaxia Spacetime Total Conservation Theory

Changxi Hong

The double-slit interference experiment remains one of the most puzzling phenomena in quantum mechanics. Standard quantum mechanics explains it through wave-particle duality, superposition, and wavefunction collapse—all mathematical postulates without physical mechanisms. Within the Huaxia Spacetime Total Conservation Theory (H-SET), the electron is not a point particle but a helical dislocation loop in the space medium with spatial extension determined by the space quantum coherence scale. Interference arises because the elastic field of a single electron loop simultaneously covers both slits, and the two emergent elastic waves interfere on the screen. The effective de Broglie wavelength is derived as the geometric extension of the dislocation loop in the momentum direction, yielding identical numerical values to standard quantum mechanics but with a physical origin. Observation-induced disappearance of interference is explained as the destruction of elastic boundary conditions at the slits by the macroscopic elastic field of the detector, not by mysterious wavefunction collapse. Three testable predictions are provided: precise fringe spacing for fullerene (C₆₀) interference, the quantitative relationship between path distinguishability and fringe visibility, and the mass limit for macromolecular interference.

The Complete Disenchantment of Wave-Particle Duality

Jiwen Nie

Field-Theoretic Explanation of Wave-Particle Duality—Unification of Particle Locality and the Wave Nature of the Perturbation Field This paper provides a physical explanation of the most central puzzle in quantum mechanics—wave-particle duality—without relying on "probability-amplitude collapse" or "nonlocal entanglement." This theory divides all matter in the universe into Nie-matter entities (massive, Staticity) and Ji-matter entities (massless, Dynamicity), and maintains that quantum objects (electrons, neutrons, etc.) are always localized Nie-matter entity particles. Their "wave behavior" originates from the particle's local perturbation of the Ji-matter field that already fills space during motion—the perturbation propagates in the form of a wave, produces an interference field when passing through the double slits, and the interference field in turn guides the particle's landing position. The particle always passes through only one slit, while the field passes through both slits simultaneously; interference is the behavior of the field, not the behavior of the particle. This mechanism naturally explains double-slit interference, the coexistence of neutron collisions and wave behavior, the disturbance of interference fringes by observation devices, and the variation of interference contrast with source offset and slit spacing. This paper further gives three falsifiable predictions: P6-1 (a decisive distinction between device field-strength disturbance and which-path information disturbance), P6-2A (the disturbance effect varies continuously with field strength), and P6-2B (an argument for the explanatory power of double-slit interference contrast—naturally derived from one mechanism vs. jointly explained by four independent concepts). Compared with mainstream theory, this theory does not need "wavefunction collapse," does not need "nonlocality," and does not need "many worlds"—it only needs to acknowledge: particles are localized, the field fills space, and the motion of particles is guided by the local field gradient.

Experimental Study of Mystery of Double Slit --- Comprehensive Double Slit Experiments

Hui Peng

Young’s double slit experiments, which represent the mystery of quantum mechanics, have been interpreted by quantum probability waves and pilot waves. In this article, to study the mystery, we introduce the “virtual box” which represents the slide of double-slit and its right-hand neighborhood. Within, and only within, the “virtual box” the standard wave interference patterns are formed. We propose and carry out “comprehensive double slit experiments” that show that, first, light travelling from a laser source towards the slides of double slit and/or cross-double slit behaves as particle (postulate-1), and second, after leaving the "virtual box" zone and being directed towards the detector, the light behaves as a stream of photons (postulate-2) with no further interference due to the slits. On the one hand, the interference patterns do exist in the comprehensive-double slit experiments. On the other hand, we show four novel phenomena: (1) the fringes of the interference patterns are formed independently; (2) the fringes of the interference patterns can be formed partially; (3) the longitudinal shields do not disturb the interference patterns; and (4) the range of the virtual box is less than one inch. These novel phenomena indicate that photons behave as particles, and would not be expected if photons behave as waves created by the double slit and/or cross double slit. The comprehensive-double slit experiments show the coexistence of wave distribution and particle nature of photons in the same experiment, which violates complementarity principle and thus, seems a paradox. We suggest an interpretation to address the paradox. All observations of the comprehensive-double slit experiments are consistent. Progress in studying the mystery of the double slit experiment is presented.
