“How can things have both particle and wave properties?”
Good question.
Accepted science can’t answer that question but I once asked myself that same question in the early 90s and came up with this model which is just my own hypothesis, as an expert in the behavior of electromagnetic waves in the field of high speed digital design, of how something can have properties of both a particle and a wave:
Figure 1: A Dual Particle Wave Helix Model shows a particle in positive time entangled with an antiparticle in negative time such that the pair are locked in a virtual dual orbit as they propagate through space in differential time.
Negative Time:
To understand what negative time is we need to go back to the Big Bang at the beginning of time when all matter and antimatter was initially created as entangled particle pairs.
According to CPT symmetry which stands for Charge conjugation, Parity transformation, and Time reversal, for an antiverse to be consistent it requires all three symmetries.
Most scientists found time reversal too hard to swallow due to paradoxes like the grandfather paradox, but lets assume its true for now.
Remember it’s the beginning of time when all matter/antimatter pairs were created. Normally if an entangled pair was created today they would both exist in spacetime moving in opposite directions of space. But at the Big Bang space and time flip-flop so let’s assume the pair were created moving in opposite directions of time instead satisfying CPT symmetry.
Besides, if matter/antimatter pairs were moving in opposite directions in space at the Big Bang, that would create a conundrum. After all, if all matter expanded or inflated away from the singularity, wouldn’t that imply that all anti-matter must have been created moving towards the singularity?
But here’s the thing: reverse time at the beginning of time wouldn’t be time running in reverse like a video running backwards. That would imply a history and at the beginning of time, there is no history. Therefore antimatter running backwards through time starting from zero must exist in a dimension of negative time!
A good analogy of the time line would be a number line which has both negative and positive integers counting up from a common origin:
..., -10, -9, -8, -7, -6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3, +4, +5, +6, +7, +8, +9, +10, ...
Notice that the two time rays never overlap, so there’s no chance of going backwards to ones own past. Essentially you just have two time rays with each following the arrow of increasing entropy.
Furthermore thr traditional light cone of the Big Bang that represents 3D space as a 2D disk that expands over time would now be a dual light cone which also happens to be a more proper analog of the dual cone used in conics theory.
Figure 2: The Big Bang Dual light cone model explains the symmetry of matter as predicted by Noether’s Theorem.
Not only that, when taking the square root of some value is required, then many tend to just ignore negative values when they don’t make sense to us even though it’s correct to say that the results should be both positive and negative.
When we include an antiverse, take a look at what happens to the plot of the lorentz factor, α vs relative velocity, β:
Figure 2: Alpha vs Beta plot. The lorentz factor vs relative velocity when taking both positive and negative values into account results in a unit circle! positive and negative beta represents relative motion apart from each other or towards each other. Positive and negative values for alpha represent the universe and the hidden anti-verse.
Moving on, because each particle is entangled with it’s anti-particle mate, the dual universes would not be two independent universes. They would actually be identical mirrored Universes that shared a single determinism. another words the two would actually behave as a single universe as two sides of the same coin. Yet because matter and antimatter existed in oppodite dimensions of time, they would never have self annihilated.
Instead they would coexist in differential time 180° out of phase from each other. That’s why there is no evidence of the antimatter created by the Big Bang.
According to CPT symmetry, an observer in one universe would not be able to distinguish which universe they existed in which is exactly what we would expect in the dual light cone universe. They are identical but opposite universes.
Now since they exist in two different dimensions of time but in the same three dimensions of space, then if you rotated one cone and fliped it on top of the other, all particles would align in space except for particles rotating with an angular momentum. Matter and antimatter would both be rotating in the same direction of CW or CCW but they would be 180° phase shifted from one another which brings us back to the dual helix in differential time.
And yet, if we ever tried to observe the particle directly we could not ever be able to observe two particles with opposite charges in a dual orbit. The act of observing the particle would break the entanglement and we could only ever be able to observe a single particle with a single charge moving in a straight line through spacetime.
This new logical model would immediately explain:
• why we can’t find the antimatter created at the Big Bang
• the properties of quantum spin in orbits that are larger than the particle
• intrinsic dipole moments where they behave as if they were dipole bar magnets spinning in a magnetic field
• why quantum spin can only be measured to be either up or down regardless of the angle that we orient the electric field
• why they seem to require two rotations in order to complete a single wave instead of one rotation per wavelength as we would expect for a single particle that was moving in a rotational path.
• dual universes explains the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle where each universe can only observe half of the information.
• How free will can exist in a deterministic universe due to the fact that uncertainty prevents our knowing our own deterministic future. We choose our path, but the path can only be predicted by some higher dimensional being who can see both frames of time at once thus resolving the logical paradox of free will and a deterministic future.
• why the durac equation predicts both matter and antimatter
• why the durac equation predicts a g factor of two
• waves propagating through differential time explains instantanious action at a distance
• how a light wave can self propagate forever through a vacuum
• why time only flows in the direction of increasing entropy
• the missing loop of charged particles that can explain how magnetic fields are created.
• why its not a negative charge over an infinite virtual ocean of negative charged particles with a void, but simply a negative charged particle and a positive charged particle.
• how it could be the logical model for one of the two hidden extra-dimensional loop dimensions per world line of string theory. The second orthogonal hidden dimension is explained in another logical model which explains gravity, dark matter, gravitons, how the Einstein Rosen Bridge is maintained by negative energy, unifies all forces as the EM force and finally explains what caused the Big Bang.
• why EM waves seem to propagate in both directions of time
• why antimatter seems to behave exactly like matter in reverse time
• where the antimatter came from that annihilates with matter at the event horrizon of black holes thus resolving the black hole paradox
and probably many other unsolved mysteries of physics. in fact between all three parts of my proposed TOE, every mystery, singularity, unsolved paradox can be logically explained in simple and self consistent manner. But, again, I digress.
Back to your question: Does this explain the evidence of the particle/wave behavior?
Yes, I think it does. Since the entanglement of the particles across dimensions of time are what causes the properties of the wave, observing the particle would break the entanglement and collapse the wave so that the two particles would no longer propagate in a virtual dual orbit in differential time and instead move in a straight line as a single particle in normal spacetime.
Left unobserved, then the entangled particles propagate through both slits though they be in opposite universes of differential time which causes the interferance pattern while we only observe the evidence of a single photon hitting the screen at a time. Another words we observe the evidence of a single photon hitting the screen one at a time, but where the photon strikes the screen is determined by their refraction through both slits which therefore causes the probability wave distribution pattern of photons hitting the screen. i.e. bright bands of high probability and dark bands of low probability.
