The double-slit experiment is one of the most famous experiments in physics and definitely one of the weirdest. It demonstrates that matter and energy (such as light) can exhibit both wave and ...

The double split-experiment demonstrates a central tenant of the most fundamental mathematical framework underpinning everything, known as quantum physics. Quantum physics underlies how atoms work, ...

It was not until 100 years later, in 1801, that the British scientist Thomas Young was able to clearly prove the wave nature of light with his first double-slit experiment, which settled the question ...
