Reinterpreting the Double Slit Experiment: Quantum Jumps and Hidden-Values

Jose Oreste Mazzini

Abstract: This paper proposes a novel interpretation of the double slit experiment, addressing the wave-particle duality and providing an explanation of quantum jumps and hidden-values in quantum mechanics. It suggests that quantum systems oscillate between its dimensions creating an intermittent presence in 3D and consequently, to its coexisting particle. By building on a previous theory of space, the author suggests that quantum systems get in-and-out of 3D space giving an oscillatory presence to its space. This experiment consists of the evolution of a divided quantum space, so the two propagation zones will be subject to a destructive interference, and its particle will be subject to quantum jumps between its intermittent and divided presence in 3D. Explaining why only a compact particle reaches the final screen meanwhile, consecutive particle will reveal an interference pattern. A hidden-values concept is introduced, offering a clearer understanding of why quantum mechanics is complete and the effect of prior detection on outcomes. This novel framework provides a deeper understanding of this mystery that is at the heart of quantum mechanics.

Keywords: double slit experiment, George Thomson, quantum jump, wave particle duality, destructive interference, hidden-values.
