Double Slit Single Photon Question
As we know, we've seen experiment results in the double slit experiment where **even firing one photon at a time** still leads to an interference pattern.
However... I'm kind of confused at this part (the white arrows). When you use a laser in the experiment, the laser beam is MASSIVE compared to a single photon. So wouldn't that mean that a single photon would only travel straight down **one** of the many white arrow paths?
