This explanation doesn't seem to leave any room for the experimental observation that simply knowing which slit the electron went through - not some physical interaction that disturbs it but simply having that knowledge - changes the pattern.
- mistercow 7y agoHow would you know which slit the particle went through without physically interacting with it?
- EliRivers 7y agoYou can decide afterwards whether to figure out which way it went or not, and make your observation then. While the English language isn't great at describing this sort of thing, it seems fairly safe to suggest that I cannot choose now to physically interact with an event that happened in the past.
