Electron Double Slit Experiment


Theory

The Electron Double Slit Experiment proved the duality of matter: fundamental particles have particle-like properties, as well as wave-like properties.

In the experiment, when electrons were shot through an apparatus with 2 slits, it caused an interference pattern, suggesting that electrons behave like waves, with properties like position and momentum represented by a probability wave.

Simulation

This simulation contains abstractions and an implementation of the double slit experiment in which electrons behave like particles only. It goes to show that duality is needed to observe a diffraction pattern.
