:: I support that with 100 % and even if iam sad that my proper last comment will desapear (sob! sob!) I think that the mention :''the preponderance of scientific opinion is that Afshar's experiment does not refute complementarity'' is extremely good (even if I dont know personally any physicist which is pro-Afshar ). --[[User:Drezet|Drezet]]
::: I recently gave a talk at a physics conference in Vaxjo University in Sweden, where the majority (30+ physicists) agreed with my conclusion that the common reading of Bohr's Complementarity principle (based on the current literature) is ruled out. Some initial objections were replaced by acceptance of my conclusion upon further discussion after the talk. So I certainly disagree Wyethwith the sentence ''the preponderance of scientific opinion is that Afshar's experiment does not refute complementarity''. That is the opinion of a few vociferous opponents, not the scientific community. Also, the paper has been accepted for publication in Proc. SPIE 5866, 229-244 (July 2005): http://bookstore.spie.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=DetailVolume&productid=604724 . This and other publications in the works, as well as the growing list of supporters of the work (see my earlier entries for a partial list) reflect the fact that although my experiment/conclusion is controversial, it is aptly viewed by the major practitioners of the field as a revealing and relevant one vis-a-vis the discourse on the foundations of QM. As mentioned before, any claims regarding "the preponderance of scientific opinion" without a scientific polling of the experts in the field would be baseless and irresponsible. At this point the majority seem to be agnostic rather than antagonistic. I suggest all those who have made their opposition publicly available to attend my talk at the upcoming SPIE meeting in San Diego, where I would have the opportunity to address their comments in person. Simply put, the fat lady has not song yet despite the opinions of some. Nonetheless, replacing the long Contoversy section with web links is a good idea. You may also wish to include the Proc. SPIE ref. for the paper which also includes further suggested experiments.--[[User:Afshar|Afshar]] 01:11, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
