For more than a century, the double-slit experiment has been the sharpest test of what reality is made of, and of whether ...
Physicists in China have brought one of Einstein’s thought experiments into reality—but not quite with the outcome he hoped ...
"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

Perhaps one of the most famous experiments in physics has been giving us the wrong message all these years. For nearly two ...
Scientists in China have performed an experiment first proposed by Albert Einstein almost a century ago when he sought to ...
The precise methodology of Richard Feynman's famous double-slit thought-experiment – a cornerstone of quantum mechanics that showed how electrons behave as both a particle and a wave – has been ...
The double-slit experiment is one of the most famous experiments in physics and definitely one of the weirdest. It demonstrates that matter and energy (such as light) can exhibit both wave and ...
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 ...
In something akin to a double-slit experiment, scientists at the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society, in co-operation with researchers from the California Institute of Technology in ...
