I wasn't really addressing that point, as I mentioned.

Perhaps you can tell me what happens if the slits lead to separate
compartments; does the photon-wave only enter one?

Dear Mr Kinane

you are asking about entring one photon!!

while me and apparently you as well
do not know
what is** one** photon !!!
what is a single photon definition??

before starting walking we have to learn how to crawl
ist that ??

TIA

Agreed. But in so far as the standard experiment goes, if the slits lead to
separate compartments, does 'the wave' , to a greater extent than if there
is only one compartment, only enter one?

let me reveal my sucpicions
i am not just asking questions
itis motivated by some sucpicions ans some intuitive guesses
about why is all that old confusion around the
,strange creature that can be in two places at a time'

my sucpicion is that it is not at all *one creatuere* !!
it is at least a few of them
and if it is so the enigma is solved ......

so we have to satrrt with a question that i start to sucpect that no
one
thought about it :

what is the QUANTITATIVE DEFINITION of a single photon!!!??

while you present it by an abstarct spreading in space
entity(mathematical formula )
you ddint give a definit quantitative answer about
waht is quantitatively the smallest unit of the photon that every
body speakes about
as if it was comonly understood and defined !! ???
