Quantum by Chance

Evidence before adjectives

Experiments I find
interesting.

A curated collection of experiments that sharpen an idea, unsettle an assumption, or leave me with a better question.

What counts here? An experiment I want to remember because the setup, result, or implication changed how I frame the subject.

The double-slit experiment

The setup

Particles sent toward two slits · interference pattern · path information introduced

What happened

Without path information, an interference pattern builds up. When the path becomes knowable, that pattern changes.

Why it caught my attentionThis was the first experiment that pulled me down the quantum rabbit hole. It made the strangeness feel concrete while opening a much bigger question about what physicists mean by observation.

Question it leaves me withWhat does ‘being watched’ actually mean if human attention has nothing to do with it?
