In the realm of quantum mechanics, the behavior of particles is often described by their wave-particle duality, a fundamental concept that emerged from experiments like the double-slit experiment. This experiment, which involves shooting particles through two slits onto a screen, demonstrates the wave-like behavior of particles such as photons and electrons. One of the key
