An international team of researchers has, for the first time, mapped complete trajectories of single photons in Young’s famous double slit experiment. The finding takes an important first step towards measuring complimentary variables of a quantum system – which until now has been considered impossible as a consequence of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.

So, does this mean that Heisenberg was wrong? Because it would be really great if it did. SO ... by VelociraptorBlade 2011-06-06 19:34:31
