In Toady's content we will discuss about Quantum Reality, The Science Behind Wave-Particle Duality and the Illusion of Reality

Guys, Close your eyes,  and open them azaguanine. Whatever world you are seeing, is this world being created because of your vision? Is your consciousness playing an important role in creating this world for you? Well, this must be a very strange, even complicated thought. But then why is it that the founding fathers of quantum mechanics, who have made this the most successful theory in the world today, they all used to think exactly this way, used to believe exactly in this idea.

Well, even in ancient Vedic philosophy, Vedanta philosophy, the universe is called Maya, i.e. illusion. So, has the time finally come when science and religion go somewhere and finally become one? Well, you will get the answer to this very soon. But first of all, let's understand why did the scientists of quantum theory believe in such a supernatural concept? Because, generally, as you know, science does not believe in things like supernatural consciousness or the soul.

So, did these scientists make a mistake here? So, to understand this, we have to start from the beginning of this whole mess, which is the most powerful and miraculous experiment in history, the double slit experiment. Now, many people must have heard about this experiment many times, but trust me, there must be someone who understands all its secrets. So, today, we will publish this experiment with its proper interpretation, i.e. understanding, once and for all, because it is the backbone of quantum theory.

And it also proves that reality, i.e. the things happening around us, the things that are present, that we can see, all this is just an illusion, once again, which was believed by the fathers of quantum theory. A few centuries ago, the situation was such that some basic things of the universe, about its light and its nature, all the great physicists were confused. They did not understand that light is a particle or a wave, i.e. it behaves like a particle in nature or like a wave.

Now, my scientific-tempered friends, as you know, in science, experiments have the greatest importance. Experimental results are given the most weightage as evidence. And experimentally, whatever scientists were performing experiments, the same thing was coming in front of them, that this light is showing duality, i.e. at the same time, it is acting like a particle and acting like a wave.

As if, at the same time, one coin is showing two sides. That is, at that time, there was such an environment, that let's say, if one physicist is saying that your shirt is white, then the other was saying, looking at the same shirt, that it is black. And not just saying, they were also proving it as experimental results.

So, how can one thing have two different natures? Well, to understand this, we have to understand what did the scientists see in those experiments. So, in the late 17th century, scientists were divided into two groups, Group A and Group B. Among them, Group A, who believed in the Newtonian concept, they believed that light is a particle. And Group B, led by the Dutch physicist Christian Huygens, they believed that light is a wave.

And both had substantial experimental evidence. Now, the leaders of both these groups, i.e. Newton and Huygens, had given their theories at about the same time in the past. But because Newton was a prominent physicist at that time, for the next 100 years, his particle theory was accepted by the mainstream physics.

Now, this claim of theirs became weak when in the early 19th century, one after the other, two such experiments were conducted, which proved light as a wave. The first experiment was done in the year 1804, when the British physicist Thomas Young, for the first time, through a double slit experiment, showed the destructive interference pattern of light like this. And the second experiment was done in the year 1819, when the French physicist Franco Arago, through his Poisson spot experiment, showed the constructive interference of light.

Now, this constructive and destructive interference pattern is formed when two waves respectively either merge or cancel each other out. i.e. they are created by waves. So, because of these two experiments, Christian Huygens' theory finally got the limelight.

And because of his score of 2-0, Huygens' wave theory ruled for the next 100 years. So, the score was 2-0 till now. Right? But, the picture is still there, friends.

Now, see how particle theory covers up here. So, after this came the 20th century, and at this time, two such experiments were conducted, which even unwillingly brought Newton's particle theory back to life and brought it to the limelight. The first experiment was done in 1905, performed by one and only Einstein, which is called the photoelectric effect, in which he showed that light collides with electrons in the form of particles and throws them out of its atom.

And it can throw. So, there is an interaction, which can only be done by a particle. And the second experiment was the Compton scattering experiment of 1923, in which physicist Arthur Compton demonstrated that X-ray light transfers its energy when it collides with electrons.

So, yeah. After these two demonstrations, Group A and Group B had one theory and two experimental evidences. And therefore, the score was now equal to 2-2.

Now, only one tiebreaker was needed. For the next few years, a lot of efforts were made to find this tiebreaker. But, a solid tiebreaker was not visible anywhere.

The arguments and experiments on both sides were very strong. And the experiments to support both the theories even if they were done by multiple people, they would get the same results. This means that there were no mistakes in both the observations.

And therefore, finally, at last, all the physicists unanimously had to accept that light probably shows dual nature. Light is dual. At the same time, particles and waves exist in nature in the form of both of them.

Now, the creation of this theory was a major turning point in the world of physics. Because, the first chapter of defining the reality of this universe came to an end and finally, physics took a step towards its second chapter, which was to understand matter. Till now, we had talked about light, right? Now, it was time to understand matter, particles, atoms, quarks, electrons, etc.

So, scientists had understood that light shows dual nature. But, after this observation, physicists started thinking for the first time that what if in Einstein's photoelectric effect experiment, the photon knocks out an electron, what if it also shows a mixture of a wave and a particle like light? Because, in 1924, immediately after Compton's scattering experiment, famous French physicist Louis de Broglie hypothesized that if light can show wave-particle duality, then why can't normal matter and all its particles and subatomic particles show this wave-particle duality? What crime did they commit? Smart thought, right? So, in 1927, two American physicists, Clinton Davison and Lester Germer, decided to test this hypothesis and through their famous Davison-Germer experiment, experimentally proved that whether it is light or matter, i.e. electron, quarks and all particles, on a quantum level, everything indeed shows the nature of a wave. So, they act like waves on a quantum scale.

Now, I don't know if you can imagine this dilemma or not, but in those days, it was like a bomb blast in the minds of scientists. Just close your eyes for a few seconds and think of yourself instead of Broglie. Think that on one hand, you know for sure that you can touch the things around you, you can feel them, and yet, experimentally it seems that those things are not made of solid particles, but are made of waves that cannot be touched because they don't have a definite position.

They just have a chance of meeting in one of the other locations. And then, from here, an obvious implication emerged that perhaps the world works in a strange way on an ultramicroscopic quantum level, but from that quantum level to our macro world, something is happening with the waves of all the particles that they are giving up their wave nature and turning into a definite specific reality. But no one knew how this was happening.

To explain this, no one had any idea, no theory. And this exact thing was going to be the biggest question of the world's scientists for the next 100 years. Now friends, I am sure if you also ask this question to any of your science lover friends, they will also not know this.

But don't worry, you will know this today. So read this content fully, because it is a very interesting concept. I will reiterate again, on ultramicroscopic level, how the particles are behaving like a wave, that is, they don't have a fixed location, they can be anywhere, but on a macro level, they are acting like proper definite objects, that is, they will meet you at a particular position.

It is not that they keep changing their location like waves. So how is this conversion, this wave function, transforming into particle nature? Well, run your mind till then, you will get the answer to this very soon. But let's take the story a little further.

Scientists found it so complicated to convert from wave nature to particle that it was as if goods were being made out of magic. And that's why to digest this fact, many scientists took the help of philosophy. And then the same episode begins when scientists like Schrodinger and Heisenberg were inspired by Hindu philosophy where something is being created by illusion, this was discussed, Vedanta philosophy.

But friends, till now, don't draw any conclusion in the story because the story is not over yet. This is not a take-home message that everything is being created by magic. In the future, we will know what real suspense is because here many fathers of quantum physics were also unable to interpret it properly, which today, just because we have modern technology, you will be able to know more than that.

But anyway, coming back to the scientific community, so on one hand, where the experiment of Louis de Broglie was proven right by the Davisson-Germer experiment, that yes, subatomic particles also act like waves on quantum level, at the same time, on the other hand, the three prominent founding fathers of quantum physics, Niels Bohr, Erwin Schrodinger and Werner Heisenberg, were kind of not so happy with their current stance. And that's why they invented a mathematical formula to study this wave nature in depth, called wave function. So now it was time to study those quantum waves so that we get more information about their behavior, for which they took the support of wave mathematics and a new concept called wave function was invented.

But in those days, Heisenberg separately, along with his mentor Niels Bohr, was looking for it with great impatience. He felt that Schrodinger's wave equation has described the wave nature so well, and we have understood a wave very well. Then why does that wave collapse and how does it happen, why is it not visible? Are we missing something important? So after thinking for many days, Niels Bohr and Heisenberg realized that somewhere its answer can only give them a double slit experiment.

And that's why this time, they tried to think by adding a new twist, a new angle to the double slit experiment. This time they did a thought experiment that what if in this double slit experiment, we use a detector to keep an eye on those photons. So in this case, maybe our act of measurement will force the wave nature of a particle to change into reality, that is, the particle nature.

Because to observe or detect something, you have to measure it yourself, for which you have to interact with something. I mean, when you see something in the dark, then what is happening? You hit a torch on that thing, by which the photons coming out of the torch hit that object and convey its information to the retina of your eyes. So, whether it happens or not, in the double slit experiment, this detector will definitely interact with those particles and because of this, the wave function will collapse.

Now this idea developed thoughts from it and its countless versions later became known as the Copenhagen Interpretation. Since all these discussions of Heisenberg and Niels Bohr originally took place in Bohr's hometown Copenhagen, when Heisenberg went to meet them there. Now, some very weird conclusions came out of this idea.

Many mystics and supernatural gurus started writing books that until you see things, it does not exist. Everything is just an illusion and your soul, your consciousness fills them with life. Through your eyes, your consciousness is creating the universe which does not exist.

Now you may have read many such blogs which say that quantum mechanics says that reality is created by seeing. But, but, but, the picture is still left my friend. This is a completely wrong interpretation of quantum mechanics and soon you will know why.

But at that time, even our Einstein brother found this idea very strange. And in fact, this is the reason that in the late 1920s, he taunted Niels Bohr. Do you really believe the moon is not there when you are not looking at it? And Einstein was a big opposer of quantum mechanics.

He did not agree with Niels Bohr's double slit experiment with the detector thought experiment. Even though Niels Bohr backed everything mathematically. At that time, there was only one thing missing and Einstein would have got solid proof of this observation.

And that was the technology required to perform that experiment with a detector. At that time, technology was not so advanced that it could make a precise detector to measure particles. That means, in a way, today you have an opportunity to understand quantum mechanics more accurately than their founding fathers.

Heisenberg, or Niels Bohr, or even Schrödinger could never do these experiments which could give the correct interpretation of quantum mechanics. They themselves were kind of confused. They were finding the observations weird, but they were not able to understand the meaning behind it.

But today, with just this one post, this historical confusion will be solved. Science fact, moving forward, this wave function collapse updated experiment was explained by the German physicist H. Dieter Zee. When he performed the double slit experiment practically in real life with a detector and presented his observations and conclusions to the world.

His experiments showed that whatever nonsense we have made up about the waves of matter and how they collapse and how they create reality is a complete nonsense. Dieter Zee and his similar experiments in the 80s pointed out that the confusion in quantum mechanics is created by just two words and that word is wave function collapse. If we use the word quantum decoherence then quantum mechanics becomes as clear as water.

So clear and simple that even a child can teach it to 4 people. In 1926, when Schrödinger gave his equation, a German physicist named Max Born invented the famous Born rule to explain According to this Born rule, the interference pattern does not mean that particles exist in the universe in the form of a fluid like water. It simply means that all the H2O molecules of move up and down at the same frequency and move forward.

Similarly, all the particles coming out of a particle beam propagate at the same frequency and reach the screen. Now with this kind of movement it is obvious that there will be an interference pattern on the screen because they are propagating like waves. Using the Schrödinger equation, we can predict where the individual particles of the original wave will hit the screen the most.

But what if we put a detector near slit 2? Obviously, that detector will shoot photons at the particles coming out of slit 2 so that they bounce like a ship's sonar system and give us some information about the particles. But there is a fundamental flaw in this detection method which I am sure you all missed bu.

Quantum Decoherence simply means that the wave motion of particles breaks in sync. Out of sync coherence breaks hence the name Decoherence. So, since those particles can randomly collide with our photons at any angle, their flow will be disrupted.

They will collide anywhere on the final screen but not in a proper wave-like interference pattern. Secondly, since some of the energy of the particles will be transferred to our photons, the frequency of the particles in slit 2 will be out of sync. So, both position and momentum have been affected.

Hence, we will not see a parallel-sync interference pattern. In other words, we have ruined the wave pattern by using a detector. So, the particles on the final screen which were showing an interference pattern together, will just show a non-interference pattern Now, tell me, why do we need consciousness, spirituality or soul in this? Clearly, only the mathematical wave function given by Schrodinger is collapsing.

Because with the help of that, you can't predict on the screen which particle will collide where. You have ruined the wave behavior by yourself. Now, friends, notice one more thing here.

Earlier, we were seeing multiple patterns but now they are localized. And what is a particle? It's localized energy, right? And this is your particle conversion from wave to particle. Quantum decoherence.

Now, why is this happening? Let's understand this in detail because I know you might not be satisfied. Along with this, let's raise another big question. Why is it that quantum objects behave like waves but big objects don't? For this, we have to understand how quantum decoherence is happening.

So, imagine there is a totally empty space. In this, you shot photons, then electrons, and then quarks. Now, each particle has its own individual wave function which has its own frequency and wavelength.

Now, there will be two things here. First, there will be quantum entanglement between these quantum particles. That is, some particles will start sharing their own wave functions.

And second, because of so many interactions, their wave properties will start changing. All the waves which were in sync in the beginning will now be out of sync. And this is called decoherence.

They have lost their coherence, that is, their sync. Think of it like this. Now, Navratri is also going on.

While playing Garba, how dancers start in sync and then, over a period of time, all their steps get out of sync. And this is exactly what happens with the quantum system. And when the wave functions of the different particles of the quantum system get desynchronized, because of the loss of sync, mathematically, the value of the quantum system will cancel each other out and a single net output will be generated.

And this is the reason why big objects never behave like waves. Because they have so many atoms that the frequency of all the atoms can never vibrate in sync. It's just next to impossible.

If we take the example of a tennis ball, it has 10 quadrillion atoms. Do you think all these atoms will be able to achieve the sync of a single wave? How many things are interacting with the atoms in the environment that will easily desynchronize the sync of their waviness? It's like if you start 100 clocks at the same time and then someone comes in between and teases them, how will they all show the same time at the same time after some time? And that's why big objects always show particle properties instead of wave properties. Because their wave nature has averaged out due to decoherence and turned into particle nature.

But in principle, it's possible that if you can bring all the wave functions of 10 quadrillion atoms in a single sync, then that tennis ball will also start showing the properties of the wave. Meaning it will behave like a quantum object. In fact, scientists have practically done this with some molecules which had hundreds of atoms.

Crazy, right? But in the case of a ball, it's just next to impossible to do that. But even if it happens, there is another restriction due to which we still won't see the ball changing its position like a quantum particle. And that is because of De Broglie wavelength equation which is this.

So in the case of a ball, 10 raised to the power of minus 33 meters which is the distance of a proton. No one can notice this. So yeah, even if you bring all the wave functions of tennis ball in sync, then tennis ball will take the wave properties.

But you won't be able to notice its waviness, its wave nature. And because of the restrictions of this universe, quantum world will look different to us and classical world will look different. These restrictions are the barrier which will always keep quantum world separated from classical world.

Just majestic, right? And now you know that whether it is wave function collapse or quantum decoherence, it is a completely physical and logical process and not a supernatural process which is done by your soul or consciousness. In actual reality, particles naturally vibrate because of their energy. In fact, scientists understand this decoherence very well.

So much so that they tried experiments of re-coherence and also succeeded in it. That is, first of all, they did quantum decoherence in limited number of atoms and then observed individual wave functions to see how they are changing and then again made their wave functions coherent. That is, they made them vibrate in the same sync, in the same frequency.

So that they were waves in the beginning but became particles and then became waves again. Now, this experiment is mind-blowing, right? This shows that quantum world has also started to be understood by us. But anyway , today we will be happy that you have finally understood what is quantum decoherence, what is wave function collapse, how matter is being created There is no supernatural reason behind it.

This is a completely physical process called quantum decoherence. Now, I know it may seem a little complicated to understand, but there is no problem. You have seen it once, twice, three times, you will easily understand.
