>Can “wave function collapse” be used to send information?
>LOL
>No.
>In real life, for context, using a dual slit experiment context for clarity, there’s no such thing.
>It is a made up scenario.
>In a nutshell, light acts as both a wave and a particle…. at the same time.
>If you measure for waves, you get waves, if you measure for particles, you get particles.
>This is basically what “wave-particle duality” is about.
>Some people who did not understand the physics of light, while ALSO not understanding what the term “observer” means, as a frame or reference in physics, misinterpreted this as light changing from a particle to a wave or back again, if someone looked at it.
>:D
>They called this a “wave function collapse”, trying to give a name to when the wave collapses into a particle, etc.
>They thought it happened if someone peeked.
>Its not a real thing,
>It is woo.
