I thought I understood quantum mechanics. I have studied it for years. Passed exams. Got a degree.
This is the first time I have ever heard of the HOM experiment, and it is causing a crisis in my mind, since it does not match what I know about quantum mechanics.
They really should at least tell us of this experiment and its results when they start teaching us. Even after these years I was still under the impression that quantum mechanics was about unbreakable limitations on the measurement of data.
This experiment proves that the universe itself does not ... (read more)
