Three's company: interference patterns for one to four slits (expand for full image) A group of physicists in Austria has directed a beam of large molecules at a series of extremely narrow slits to ...

Superposition is nothing more than addition for waves. Let’s say we have two sets of waves that overlap in space and time. At any given point, a trough may line up with a peak, their peaks may line up ...
