Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Slit size relative to wavelength determines diffraction patterns?

The relationship between aperture (slit) size, wavelength, and resulting diffraction patterns is a fundamental axiom of wave optics described by classical diffraction theory, requiring no citation.

The analysis

The claim states a foundational principle of wave mechanics and optics (that the size of an aperture relative to the wavelength of a wave determines its diffraction pattern). This is a well-established textbook fact and common knowledge in physics, so no papers need to be attached.
