The Observer Effect is (one of) my favorite phenomenons in physics — here’s a quick overview of what it is and why it’s super weird and geeky cool!! ?

what about just one detector?

Young wouldn't be happy looking at this .
…um jk ?.
Well I am still learning flip flop and other shit in college lol.but I know this thing.
In electronics like voltmeter , ammeter affect the current , flowing in the circuit they are connected. Similarly the detectors affect the light particals…
My perceptive..
do the detectors not somehow interfere? Would there be a different outcome with a different method of measuring or is there no other method? I've never heard of the Observer Effect but you did an excellent job of explaining it, thanks! Reminds me a bit of Schrodinger's cat. less whiskers. Cool channel!
Wouldn't this effect be easily caused by the fact that the very act of observing or measuring by definition has to take a sample of the energy it is measuring. Even if that is a passive measure, this is still a change in inductance or other change in the nearby fields.
