Getting some real crackpot vibes here.
How does Duane's hypothesis account for the diffraction pattern going away if the particular slit the particle goes through is measured?
- empath75 7y agoIf he had read the article that he linked to, he’d see that duane’s hypothesis is a special case that can be derived from quantum mechanics. I don’t believe that you can derive the rest of quantum mechanics from duane’s hypothesis.
- gus_massa 7y agoI agree. The relevant paragraph from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duane's_hypothesis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duane's_hypothesis > Quantum mechanics > According to Ballentine, Duane's proposal of quantum translational momentum transfer is no longer needed as a special hypothesis; rather, it is predicted as a theorem of quantum mechanics.[22] It is presented in terms of quantum mechanics by other present day writers also.[23][24][25][26][27][28]
