Or is it a logic presumption? That’s the sound bite. A quantum particles has a set amount of energy and is localized when detected. Behavior of particles, not waves. But it doesn’t mean they act like little ping-pong balls. The wave does not consist of particles
Mordred Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) As this is related to how one describes a particle and StingyJunkie's wavecicle reference I will just post a link to another thread where I had posted the details below. https://www.scienceforums.net/topic/118004-hypothetically-can-empty-space-“slice”-through-a-solid-object/?do=findComment&comment=1092620 As Swansont mentioned thinking of particles as little corpuscular balls is the wrong descriptive of a particle. See the link for further details Edited February 11, 2019 by Mordred
