juggledean's Journal: rejected ...

Waving Copenhagen Good-bye Thursday August 05, @01:24PM Rejected

This was a good one, I don't know why it was rejected. I guess I don't have enough karma or something. Albert would have liked it, so would Neils.

The New Scientist(7 day free trial) ran an article about an experiment that claimed to overthrow Bohr's complementarity principle. By putting a wire grid where the minima should have been in a double slit experiment and not observing a change in the particle nature of the light, this experiment said (IMO) you could see light as both particles and waves at the same time.

Analog Science Fiction wrote an article on it and Kathryn Cramer had some info on it with scans of some of the New Scientist article.

To me is seems like a complement to complementarity, a cool experiment but not one that needs to be seen as threatening a world view.
