    Mh… I don’t see anything factually wrong with your post. The grammar checks out, too. … However, your comment has nothing to do with a deer or a face, your avatar is AI generated and… well that’s enough effort for today. Make more mistakes if you want more feedback. You’re making this unnecessarily difficult for everyone!








  • My understanding: light can best be described as an excitation of the electromagnetic field of spacetime. This excitation has a frequency, like an oscillation. Therefore light appears like a wave and we observe the Doppler effect. However, when interacting with other excitations, the “wave” collapses and behaves like a point like particle.

    This applies not only to light, but to all known particles, e.g. the protons in your body. The only difference to photons are additional spacetime fields that are involved (like the Higgs field).

    The weirdest part to me, is the collapse of the imaginary wave function and how it leads to ideas like “Many Worlds”.
