+separated white light into its colors, and in the 1680's hypothesized that light was composed of `corpuscles',
 supposed to possess some properties of particles.  This view reigned until the 1800's, when Thomas Young first
 performed the two-slit experiment now known by his name.  In this experiment he discovered a property of
 destructive interference, which seemed impossible to explain in terms of corpuscles, but is very naturally

-The plots of your experimental data are clear evidence of particle-wave duality for photons. You've made contact with the central question of quantum mechanics: how can light, which so clearly propagates as a wave that we can measure its wavelength, also be detected as individual photon events?  Or alternatively, how can individual photons in flight through this apparatus nevertheless 'know' whether one, or both, slits are open, in the sense of giving photon arrival rates which decrease when a second slit is opened?  Discuss these issues in your lab report.
