One of the defining breakthroughs that set quantum physics apart from classical physics was the realization that matter behaves very differently at extremely small scales. Among the most important discoveries was wave-particle duality, the idea that particles can also act like waves.
This concept became widely known through the double-slit experiment. When electrons were fired through two narrow openings, they produced a pattern of alternating light and dark b...
