This guy was around for the Solvay conference in 1927. A good recounting of the history of quantum mechanics and the mathematics underlying. Note: In this episode he explains the correspondence of the particle and the wave outlook in terms of the harmonic oscillator. Research Links Lectures Read more…
Sequence of Events 50% of the time a photon will be detected at the output of the left hand slit Source emits single photon Photon travels through both slits Due to the right hand path being low probability amplitude the interference pattern at the left slit is not complete interference. Read more…
When Richard Feynman left Cornell Freeman Dyson was asked to fill in for him and teach an advanced quantum mechanics class. His notes from that class have been made into a book and are available in pdf form. Advanced Quantum Mechanics – Freeman Dyson arxix The story behind the book Read more…

For the optical version see: Home Made Quantum Eraser Experiment Using Laser 2 Slits Polarizer Material I wanted to think about this experiment in terms of RF components to see if there was anything new I could extract. In RF speak here is what happens. Description I.T.O. Standard Radio Frequency Speak Read more…

Quantum logic In a famous paper of 1936, the first work ever to introduce quantum logics,[28] von Neumann first proved that quantum mechanics requires a propositional calculus substantially different from all classical logics and rigorously isolated a new algebraic structure for quantum logics. The concept of creating a propositional calculus for Read more…
Near the beginning of the video a crucial point is made. Either of 2 quantum bits by itself does not store any data. It is the correlation between the two bits that hold the data. Do not forget to wear your quantum sockes.
