Gates and doors for quantum users only
READER Geoff Kirbly sends us a photo of a sign at Southwell Business Park in Portland, Dorset, UK. It says: “NOTICE. This gate must be locked at all times.”
At first, Geoff says, he wondered how access could be possible through a gate that was always locked. Then he recalled Louis de Broglie’s discovery that all bodies have a characteristic wavelength which enables them to engage in quantum tunnelling and quantum diffraction. By either of these mechanisms humans could, in theory at least, pass through the locked gate.
Geoff is now trying to…
