There are no particles, there are only fields

Depuis huit ans et demi je suis couvert d'insultes sur le Net, et d'un maximum de violences bureaucratiques, pour avoir osé écrire la même chose, devant des perroquets prisonniers de leur fatuité.

Quantum foundations are still unsettled, with harmful effects on science and
society. By now it should be possible to obtain consensus on at least one
issue: Are the fundamental constituents fields or particles? Experiment and
theory imply a universe made of unbounded fields rather than bounded
particles. This is especially clear for relativistic quantum systems, and it
follows that non-relativistic quantum systems must also be made of fields.
Particles are epiphenomena arising from real fields. Thus the Schroedinger
field is not a probability amplitude for "finding, upon measurement, a
particle" but rather a real space-filling field; the field for an electron is the
electron; each electron comes through both slits in the 2-slit experiment and
spreads over the entire pattern; and quantum physics is about interactions of
microscopic systems with the macroscopic world rather than just about
measurements. It's important to clarify this issue because textbooks still teach
a particles- and measurement-oriented interpretation that leads to
bewilderment among students and pseudoscience among the public. This
article reviews classical and quantum fields, the 2-slit experiment, rigorous
theorems showing that particles are inconsistent with relativistic quantum
theory, and several phenomena demonstrating that particles are incompatible
with quantum field theories.
