How it feels

This documentary covers the final debate between Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr about the nature of quantum physics. It explains how an experiment by Alain Aspect later supported Bohr's view that measurement choices determine what we learn about the atomic world. The film presents the idea that quantum systems must be seen as whole and cannot be broken into separate parts.

What happens

Atomfysik og virkelighed er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1985 med instruktion og manuskript af Lars Becker-Larsen. Albert Einstein og Niels Bohrs sidste strid om kvantefysikkens verdensbillede. En afgørelse kom først mange år senere gennem et eksperiment udført af den franske fysiker Alain Aspect. Eksperimentet understregede Bohrs holdning, at hvad man får at vide om den atomare verden, afgøres ved valget af måleapparatur. Kvanteverdenen kan kun betragtes som en helhed og ikke analyseres som adskildte dele. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
