You won't see an interference pattern because your experiment is too simplistic. For the real way to do it look up quantum eraser.

are you fucking retarded? the results don't depend on whether there's some divine "consciousness" observing them, it depends on whether your measuring device interacts with the electron (which it has to).

>>8502506
Not exactly. The result depends on whether information is "leaked." So you can in some sense measure the electron/photon and then destroy the information in order to maintain the interference pattern. However OP's experiment doesn't actually destroy the information, just one result of that information.

The experiment is based on whether or not it can be observed. We do not have the capabilities to observe single electrons. So what ever measuring device we use effects it.

So if I just throw a photon at each particle without actually observing or measuring whether the photon interacts I'll get a slit pattern?
If I set up a flashlight lighting up both of the slits while performing the experiment I always get a slit pattern?

I did. Not sure though if the question wasn't addressed in what I read or whether I'm just too retarded to get it.

>not shutting up and calculating

you're doing it wrong

>>8502506
You've not grokked the eraser yet. Tries to account for that.

Best video explaining the quantum eraser that I've found.
