Could our thoughts manipulate energy? The double-slit experiment, one of the most awe-inspiring experiments in physics, raises this intriguing question. It demonstrates, with unparalleled strangeness, that little particles of matter have something of a wave about them and suggests that the very act of observing a particle has a dramatic effect on its behavior.
In 1801, Thomas Young performed an experiment demonstrating the wave behavior of sunlight. He placed a scratch on a black window pane so that sunlight entered a dark room. He noticed the rainbow effect from sunlight, known as diffraction. Thomas Young's experiment with light was part of classical physics long before the development of quantum mechanics and the concept of wave-particle duality. He believed it demonstrated the wave theory of light.
Young's experiment contributed to the wave theory of light, changing the corpuscular theory proposed by Isaac Newton, which had been accepted in the 17th and 18th centuries. However, Einstein's discovery of the photoelectric effect demonstrated that light behaves as individual energy particles called photons. In 1927, scientists revealed that electrons show the same behavior, which was later extended to atoms and molecules. These seemingly contradictory discoveries make it necessary to go beyond classical physics and consider the quantum nature of light. Photons are not particles or waves. They are quantum energy.
Overview:
If light consisted strictly of particles, and the particles were fired in a straight line through a slit to strike a screen on the other side. We would expect to see a pattern corresponding to the size and shape of the slit. However, if we use a double slit, the light from the two slits shows an interference pattern. To explain it, we need to know that photons are the smallest bits of quantum energy.
Are Thoughts Quantum Energy?
Everything humans built was first a thought. A common saying is that thoughts are things, and things are thoughts. We use energy to think, so thoughts have energy. Consider a quantum particle's energy, frequency, and vibrations to understand the transformative power of scientific thought.
Electrons, photons, neutrinos, and quarks are quantum energy particles that make protons and neutrons to build atoms and molecules. The photons emitted from matter have frequencies that propagate as fields but interact as energy. Is it possible that the energy of our thoughts can manipulate quantum energy?
The Paradox of the Double Slit Experiment
The double-slit experiment in modern physics demonstrates that light and matter can behave as waves and particles. It has become a classic for expressing the puzzles of quantum mechanics. The experiment demonstrates the limitation of the observer's ability to predict experimental results. This ambiguity is considered evidence of the fundamental nature of quantum mechanics, challenging us to understand its paradox.
A modern version of this experiment uses a coherent light source, such as a laser beam, illuminating a disc pierced by two parallel slits. The light passing through the slits is observed on a screen behind the disc. The nature of light passing through the two slits produces bright and dark bands on the screen. However, the light is found to be absorbed in the screen at discrete points as individual particles, not waves. The interference pattern appears due to the varying density of these particles hitting the screen.
Scientists initially thought the double-slit result showed light to be a wave, but the modern use of monochromatic light, which is light of a single wavelength or frequency, shows that light behaves as quantum energy particles. If the particles are electrons or atoms, they still act as photons. Could it be that electrons have a photon energy shell surrounding them? To explain the paradox of the double-slit experiment, we must understand the nature of quantum energy and its manifestation in different forms of matter and energy.
Electrons surround every atom and molecule in matter. When a source of “white” light lands on a material, it “touches” the electrons, and a transformation happens. Under average light intensity, a photon’s frequency changes to the electron’s frequency and is ejected in all directions as “electronic light.” Any excess energy is infrared heat added to the material. The electronic light enters our eyes, and our brain converts the frequencies into color. When a light source is available, this transformation constantly converts the source of light into electronic light, allowing us to see the world.
Humans are fascinated by color, so scientists focus their attention on the wavelengths of light. However, the cause of light comes from a force-producing frequency, a fundamental property of light that determines its energy and behavior. The wavelength is a result, not the cause, of this force-producing frequency, which is a key concept in understanding the quantum nature of light and matter.
Why Is The Double-Slit A Paradox?
1. Photons passing through a single slit act like particles.
2. Light passing through a double slit shows an interference wave-like pattern.
3. Individual photons passing the double slits show the same interference.
4. Observing how the photons travel in the slits reduces the interference pattern.
5. Turning the detector off shows the interference pattern returns.
6. This effect happens with electrons and atoms as well.
7. Why does observation change the interference pattern?
Electrons and Their Photons
Errors in the double-slit experiment could come from ignoring the diffraction effects of each slit and not understanding the complex implications of the quantum energy in particles. We must study the quantum nature of light, electrons, and atoms to understand the results. The science of electrons has opened up new answers about light and quantum particles. Swedish scientists made a video of an electron. It shows a tiny particle in the electron's center, surrounded by an energy field that vibrates with a frequency.

This classic picture looks like the structure of an atom and leads me to postulate that the electron's energy field is a photon. A photon in the energy orbital of an electron makes sense. An election contains the perfection of life in a perfect balance of light and energy, around which a force field of light is subject to expansion and contraction. This property of the electron is what brings the invisible to the visible. When a light source shines on an electron in matter, it is emitted with the electron’s frequency, and the “electronic” light enters our eyes so we can see the world.
If an electron has a photon surrounding its energy, it changes everything we know about light. When an electron is attached to a particle of matter, it vibrates at the same rate as the particle, but if the electron is isolated, it has a standard frequency. Visible light doesn’t exist independently; electrons in matter must create it.
An electron can gain energy during a mechanical, electrical, chemical, electromagnetic, nuclear, or quantum force. The electron adds the increase in energy to its “photon” orbital, and it expands to a higher energy state in the electron. However, that energy is immediately given back as a photon of light. It’s a very fast process because nature is quantum mechanical. Electrons and photons share a common bond of electromagnetic energy.
The Double-Slit Paradox Solved.
The quantum nature of light is explained by using laser light in the double-slit experiment.
Laser light is produced by the excitation of electrons of a specific frequency. When the electrons return to their normal frequency, the energy from the excited electrons produces coherent laser radiation.
Consider that electronic light, rainbow light, laser light, sunlight, and source light display slightly different effects, but the results happen for the same reason. In the double-slit experiment, laser light enters both slits, and each one creates a diffraction pattern to the same location. If only one particle, photon, or electron per second is sent to the slits, they still create the same result due to the two sources of identical diffraction.
If one of the slits has a detector to determine which slit the particles enter, the diffraction pattern stops because the slit with a detector turns into a different frequency. Laser radiation moving past the monitor changes to the new frequency of the detector, so the frequencies do not add together at the same location as they did previously.
Therefore, it has nothing to do with an observer or detector. It depends on the frequencies coming out of the slits. To prove my theory, simply add an identical detector to each slit and see that the diffraction pattern returns. The paradox is solved. You're welcome…
