The Quantum Experiment that Broke Reality | Space Time | PBS Digital Studios

How can something be both a wave and a particle at the same time?

The single particle double-slit experiment is a quantum experiment that challenges our intuitive understanding of the physical world, where near-infinite possibilities become a singular reality, a moment that scientists have come to define as “the collapse of the wave function.”

Check out this YouTube Channel Space-Time’s (A PBS Digital Studio) on the quantum experiment that broke reality!

Key Takeaways:

• The fundamental nature of reality may not be physical at all, at least in any sense that we are familiar with.
• Wave function doesn’t have a physical nature.
• The theory of Quantum Mechanics produces stunningly accurate predictions of reality.

“”It hints that the fundamental nature of reality may not be physical at all – at least in any sense that we’re familiar with.””
