[General] Afshr experiment

[John Williamson]

Dear John H et al,

Just looked at the paper below. It does not say anything beyond the usual properties of waves. There are lots of other experiments on both light (easy) and electrons (harder) which show exactly the same thing. One of those is one of mine. (Phys Rev 1990).

Conclusion - the paper does not show what the experimenters claim it shows.

Vivian:
“To measure which slit the electron passes through requires the application of a "voltage" sensor to at least one slit.”
What do you think of the Afshar experiment?
http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0702188 .


When you say “associated with” an electron, where does the field originate? If from the electron, what happens to the field going through the slits when the electron is between the mask and screen?
