... At any given time, there is only one contributing amplitude (ψ1 or ψ2, but not both). Therefore, for half the time pattern P1 will build up, and for the other half we’ll get P2. There is no interference. The result will be the sum of the two single-slit diffraction patterns. In order for waves to in ...

... (c). Two particles with the same de Broglie wavelength will have the same momentum p = mv. If the electron and proton have the same momentum, they cannot have the same speed because of the difference in their masses. For the same reason, remembering that KE = p2/2m, they cannot have the same kinetic ...

Quantum Imaging beyond the shot noise limit
... Lasers are effective, they are directional and extremely well behaved in almost all optical properties. However the measurement of laser intensity is uncertain, varying slightly from pulse to pulse. This noise arises from the particle (photon) nature of light, and leads to the fundamental limit in p ...

This yields the same relation that Bohr had proposed. In addition, it makes more reasonable the fact that the e ...
