The interactive session is designed as an exchange between colleagues and physics educators to explore and discuss new possibilities, approaches, and tools in the teaching of physics, with a particular focus on optics and photonics.

Under the motto: “Quantum Physics Unleashed – Navigate the fascinating Double-Slit Experiment. Step into a digital universe where quantum weirdness becomes an interactive journey, transforming abstract physics into a breathtaking visual experience,” the double-slit experiment will be presented in a virtual reality (VR) environment. For this purpose, the experiment has been visualized using Unity and implemented on a Pico 4 headset. Participants will have the opportunity to experience the experiment in an immersive manner.

The use of simulations is demonstrated through the example of determining the specific charge (e/m). For this purpose, we have developed an app that realistically simulates the experiment. Using the app, it is possible to determine the specific charge of the electron for various parameters.
