Hi there, I would just like to ask the Copenhagen interpretation of Light that is both as a particle and a wave and would like to verify if I understand it right. So basically Light exists as both a particle and a wave but we'll only know what state it is in when we test it or we won't know what state it will be unless we open the box (in reference to Schrodingers thought experiment). Because before diving to the quantum mechanics interpretation of light, I thought of it as a particle moving in a wave but since both cannot exist at the same time or at least it would bend our understanding of the two.
