Wave-particle duality is just one on a huge list of phenomena that we cannot intuitively understand. 1veritasium does a nice job of walking us through the steps and sharing the science behind the experiment.

It certainly looks like a nice beach, ideal for conducting physics experiments. :) I like revisiting important topics because I find that without a refresher now and then, when queried on a particular topic I end up saying -“Well, I used to know why that was so interesting, let me get back to you…”

GMTA….I was amused considering this experiment this week, tipped off by a totally unconnected thing!

There are things that we need better answers for. This is the joy of science. It appears that ‘light’ is not subject to the Higgs field. This may explain (partly?) the difficulty in identifying what light is made of.

We could all learn something from those magpies!
