Within 1 minute you just broke down what I’ve been trying to understand for years 🤯. Thank you!

[@toanmyle3338]

WOW! Your 3D animation is on straight on point! The transitions between scenes are also very smooth too! I love it ^ ^

[@Rudxain]

An interesting consequence of wave functions as probability distributions over space-time, is that light doesn't always follow straight lines, it's just that straight lines have the highest probability of being the trajectory of a photon. Refraction can also be explained this way, light doesn't actually "bend" when going into water, it's just that the "quickest" and "easiest" path requires the photon to "change" its trajectory. Lenses also work similar to water refraction. This means that, just like magnets, lenses are an example of quantum behaviour manifesting at the macroscopic level

You know that someone is extremely smart if hes able to explain difficult quantumphysiscs and wears a Team-Phillipenes jacket. Incredible well made!!

[@perlitacasas8693]

wow, so proud of you dong Drew.Keep it up

[@nikoknigge4261]

You have such a great way of explaining interesting and complex concepts. I hope you will make more videos.

[@synhaer]

This video has a perfect explaining/time ratio. You deserve more view

[@dani135698]

I really love the quality of animations on all your videos

[@jeffwinxincollado5215]

Great job! Laban Pilipinas! 🇵🇭 good luck from a fellow competitor

[@nixxywixxy2495]

I love this where it’s simple yet informative. Love from a fellow phillipino

[@ronidaffan5904]

Wow, your video animation is a gift to humanity. Nothing less. You are a giniose.

[@rishigauswami1987]

i think this was the best simple explenation of this concept i ever found. at least this is for sure the first time i understood anything at all 🤣 earned a new sub!

[@carolinacruz8582]

Good job Drew👏👏👏

Very nice! Right to the point!!

[@swagjutsu7080]

This is a great video, thanks. I liked your animation and explanation. Just one thing you can improve is the audio, it was a bit unclear, but everything else was great. Looking forward to more videos and seeing your channel grow 👍🏼

[@baradtanda5160]

Loved the video.

[@kmatcyk]

Wowww. Great job sir. Please a video on perceiving the next dimensions 🇨🇦🏴‍☠️

What does a wave function look like in the 4th dimension? Is the photon a 5th dimensional wave, that we capture in the 4th dimension as an interference pattern, and the 3rd dimension as a single photon?

[@thomasschon]

What if I send one photon at the time and the CMOS sensor that detects the photon keeps a time lapse recording of the progress of the buildup of the interference pattern, and then I start monitoring one of the slits but not the other to be able to have the CMOS sensor to only store the results of the photons that were sent out and that never got detected and thereby never got measured, would that still collapse its waveform? If I do all above but are duplicating it into a double, double slit experiment using a polarizer to split and create entangled photons, then any detection and measurement to the slits in one of the setups should collapse the waveform in both of the recordings of interference patterns that we make. What would happen if I bounce one of the polarized and entangled single photon beams against a mirror on the moon to create a time delay between the detection of the patterns that are being stored by the different CMOS sensors and the one with the shortest route immediately would report if it has received an interference pattern or not, and then a second later (that should be about 1,5 s before the entangled twin of the already detected photon here on earth would have bounced back from the moon and reached its double slit) we suddenly decide to use the exclusion method from above to check for which way the entangled photons that were sent out to bounce back from the moon and that never got detected actually took. What will happen? Will the first detector have a change of heart or will the first slit collapse the beam without any measurements are being done yet because they are still in some kind of local causality because no time has passed to an entangled photons that are traveling at the speed of light. Will a measurement of the state of one of two photons that have been entangled break the waveform for both of them? Why can’t I read anything about this? We have mirrors on the moon! Are people who are setting up the experiment that I am suggesting being deleted from the simulation?! 🙂

[@mason9807]

More videos please

[@the_hanged_clown]

if photons interact with one another, might it be possible to also "see" around a corner by reading the state of received photons, theoretically?

[@satoshisaito842]

Does it mean light photons are 4d objects and only through time we can observe the 3d position one at a time ?

[@mariajhudiel7505]

Yaaayyy go dreeeww 💗

[@spankosaurus]

amazing video. Sounds effects a bit loud though in places

[@Dannydrinkbottom]

Didn't know he was so young😂such a smart fellow

[@CRUR72]

What would happen if we modify the distance between the wall that gets proyected by the fotons and we move it closer to the one with slits? Great job by the way!

[@schmetterling4477]

Then you have to work way harder to calculate the pattern. Other than that it's all the same physics.

[@e555t66]

Do you use Manim for animation ?

Make this Experiment from 100 different Perspectives, so that all Observer Waves and Particles watch each other at the same Time, and then watch who act different the first of em, and when you Start it, you will see, that you are the first one of em 🤣😘

[@tommymalm]

This makes no sense tbh. It looks more like the photons are creating the waves which the next photons in line are affected by. Just like when many boats to fast through the water. A single boat going through calm water will go straight but if you have many boats going in a line they will create waves that will affect eachother. But hey, what do I know...

[@tommymalm]

Haha wow youtube algorithm pointed me in the right direction after this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXrchY16fdqUqLM

[@schmetterling4477]

That is correct. A classical wave is the emergent statistical average of many photon detections.

[@tombouie]

Well-Explained but the ultimate laws of the universe is our descriptions of it that follow it (aka empiricism) & not vice-versa. Hmmmm ... your accent is a little like Count Dracula but you don't really look like him though (ex: no black cape ;).
