Still Waters Posted March 17, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 17, 2013 The precise methodology of Richard Feynman's famous double-slit thought-experiment a cornerstone of quantum mechanics that showed how electrons behave as both a particle and a wave has been followed in full for the very first time. Although the particle-wave duality of electrons has been demonstrated in a number of different ways since Feynman popularised the idea in 1965, none of the experiments have managed to fully replicate the methodology set out in Volume 3 of Feynman's famous Lectures on Physics. http://phys.org/news...ought-life.html 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
