minus-square@GabulinkEnglish3•1 year agoSame deal, you’re still measuring and can still determine which photons passed through which slit.
minus-square@fruitSnackSupremelinkEnglish2•1 year agoBut then you potentially wouldn’t be interacting with all the photons right?
minus-square@GabulinkEnglish1•1 year agoYou are, just not in an intuitive way. Because you’d know the rate of emission of your light source, the information of when a photon passes slit-2 would still “tag” them (whatever photon didn’t pass slit-1 must have passed slit-2).
