Physics IV - Script of the Lecture Prof. Simon Lilly Notes from:
... The electrons hit the detector with a statistical distribution, so we observe a diffraction pattern in the locations of the detected electrons. This implies wave properties through the slits. We could ask, whether we can tell which slit the electron passed through and indeed we can quite easily, but ...

Classical limit and quantum logic - Philsci
... In the foundations of physics, the quest of explaining how the laws of classical mechanics arise from the laws of quantum mechanics is known as the classical limit problem (Cohen 1989). Generally, this limit is studied for systems that, due to its interaction with the environment, develop a process ...

... Anti-bunching is a purely quantum effect and cannot be realized, in anyway, from the classical theory of light. A simple interpretation of anti-bunching may be realized from the understanding that, light is a manifestation of discrete quantized packets of energy (photons). From this model, it is evi ...

The fact that the scattering law was obeyed so precisely, even for large angles of scattering, meant that the inverse-square law of electrostatic repulsion held good to very small distances indeed. The nucleus had to have size less than about 10−14 m, very much less than the sizes of atoms, which ar ...
