I recently learned about the electron double slit experiment, and I'd like to know more about the detectors used to track which slit the electron passes through.
When the detector is turn on, the electron acts like a particle, and when it's turned off, the electron acts like a wave. I'm wondering how the detector interacts with the electron. Somehow, the electron is changed when it is detected. How does it sense the electron has passed through?
