| 7A55.00 | Particle/Wave Duality | | |
| 7A55.10 | wave/particle sound analogy | PIRA 1000 | |
| 7A55.10 | wave-particle sound analogy | AJP 49(4),299 | A
discussion of Henry's "principle of uncertainty": that it seems fundamentally
impossible to exactly determine both the pitch and duration of sounds in
space |
| 7A55.15 | wave/particle model with dice | PIRA 1000 | |
| 7A55.15 | wave/particle model with dice | AJP 30(1),69 | Dice numbered 1-2-3-6-7-8 are thrown and the results plotted, building a pattern similar to a single slit over many throws. |
| 7A55.20 | single photon interference | PIRA 1000 | |
| 7A55.20 | single photon interference | AJP 40(7),1003 | The
source, slit, and viewing screen rotated first towards the viewer, and then
towards a phototube where it is shown that the photons are individual pulses. |
| 7A55.22 | particle - wave transition | AJP 59(5),458 | Film
detectors are placed very close and then further away from a double slit
to show the transition from particle to wave behavior. For d=1mm, the transition
occurs at about .1mm. |
| 7A55.30 | electron interference phenomena | AJP 44(3),306 | Electron
interference is shown on a Seimens Elmiskop 101 equipped with a TV image
intensifier. As the current density is increased, the flashes form a fringe
pattern. |
