Light has always been the stage on which quantum mechanics performs its strangest tricks, and the double-slit experiment is ...

Now, two unrelated-but-similar experiments confirm that, in a double-slit experiment, detection of a photon’s path (its ...

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of physics.

For more than a century, the double-slit experiment has been the sharpest test of what reality is made of, and of whether ...

Schematic of the MIT experiment: Two single atoms floating in a vacuum chamber are illuminated by a laser beam and act as the two slits. The interference of the scattered light is recorded with a ...

Imperial physicists have recreated the famous double-slit experiment, which showed light behaving as particles and a wave, in time rather than space. The experiment relies on materials that can change ...

Researchers have finally resolved a century-old debate over the famous "double slit" experiment, according to new research.

A single atom as a movable slit: Researchers realize Einstein's thought experiment in original form, observing ...

We’ve all seen recreations of the famous double-slit experiment, which showed that light can behave both as a wave and as a particle. Or rather, it’s likely that what we’ve seen is the results of the ...

Scientists in China have performed an experiment first proposed by Albert Einstein almost a century ago when he sought to ...

Most of us have heard about the double-slit experiment being performed using photons or electrons, but what about atoms and molecules? Prepare to have your mind boggled! Most of us have heard about ...
