the old business of light being a particle or a wave DEPENDING ON whether it is observed or not--HAS NOW BEEN PROVEN FALSE Any refreences? And if indeed so, what is light then?
I am very familiar with optical design and engineering of astronomical imaging systems, and this comes as a surprise because all our calculations of optics and image quality assesments are based on both premsises.

LOL! GMTA ... I was following up on that very point and could not find any such article on American Institute of Physics. I was just about to ask Quix for a reference.

i THINK
just think
that the article was asserting that the only conclusion reached so far from the experiment was that light is always both particle and wave.
But the related particulars I don’t recall at all, if there were any.
I recall thinking at the time, that it was another one of God’s little fun tweaks with us . . .
another one of his BOTH/ANDs.
