The PLOT thickens!
Please see:

This is an analysis of one odd characteristic of the double slit (optical)
experiment. It turns out that if two beams of mutually orthogonal
polarized light are applied to the dual slits, interference fringes
*never* occur!

The analysis uses quantum concepts of Momentum Space to show why this
happens.

Another esplanation is that when a horizontally polarized signal is
applied to a vertically polarized antenna, the antenna will not absorb and
re-radiate any energy.
