Quantum mechanics has revolutionized our understanding of the world by introducing fundamentally new concepts that challenge classical
physics. One remarkable concept is the wave-particle duality, which suggests that particles exhibit both wave-like and particle-like behavior,
fundamentally altering our understanding of determinism in physics. An intriguing example is the double-slit experiment, where particles seem
to change their behavior upon measurement, raising questions about the role of observation in determining outcomes. This has led to
speculation about whether particles possess a form of consciousness, and whether human minds can influence their behavior, ultimately
posing the question: Does consciousness create the world? In this course, we will explore the double-slit experiment in depth, examining the
nature of wave-particle duality and considering various interpretations of the phenomenon. Through empirical evidence, we will seek to validate
or refute interpretations proposed by non-physicists, offering insight into the underlying principles of quantum mechanics.
