Its another example of the interference of probability waves. The reason you see fringes (constructive/destructive interference) with these sorts of experiments seems to be that the probability for a single particle (photon, electron, whatever) to follow one path interferes with its probabilities to follow other paths. In this case you set up a detector that sees an ionization event that is potentially caused by one of two sources... each has its own probability, giving rise to the sort of interference we're familiar with from the traditional double-slit experiment. Incidentally, I think its a bit misleading to call it a double-slit in time instead of space. Point is, its a new way to arrange probabilities that interfere.

Laser light is fundamentally different from natural light... its a coherent group of photons; all approximately in phase, traveling in the same direction with roughly the same energy. This stuff isn't normally encountered in nature. Its hard to say what long term exposure to this sort of radiation is going to do to sensitive tissues like those found in human eyes...
I'm being general here; not saying it couldn't be safe. In any case its completely different from looking at light scattered from a screen, staring at a light bulb filament, or seeing an image formed by separate little light-sources (pixels) on a CRT.
They must have diffraction/interference problems stuffing a laser straight into an eye like that?
i currently work for the Union of Conserned* Scientists, and i, for one am glad that you've put so much throught* into this.
In a special investigation entitled "efforts against Windows using Republicans" we've come up the following relation: SUV/MPG = U$ So one can clearly see that to maximize U$, the SUV drivers must minimize MPG. That's why we're going to bomb the houses of SUV drivers--while they're empty (that's not terrorism) *(sic)
guilty until proven innocent? this kind of knee-jerk thinking is dangerous. i know we hate spammers and all that, but lay off the 5-year-olds until they've actually done something wrong, ok?
Not showing the film because fundamentalists _might_ react to it is absurd. That sort of rhetoric only substantiates their violent methods--giving in without any struggle at all.
For my money, i say there's always room for more efficient solutions. How many of us are running "obsolete"code in one place or another 'cause it happens to work better?
