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 ...
Can a photon be caught behaving like a wave and a particle in the same run of an experiment? For almost a century, that ...
A single atom as a movable slit: Researchers realize Einstein's thought experiment in original form, observing ...
Physicists in China have brought one of Einstein’s thought experiments into reality—but not quite with the outcome he hoped ...
Classical Physics (Physics established mostly by Newton), has one property that we may think that is universal, which is, certainty. For example, by using the mathematics of Newton, we can precisely ...
Scientists in China have performed an experiment first proposed by Albert Einstein almost a century ago when he sought to disprove the quantum mechanical principle of complementarity put forth by ...
Physicists confirm that light has two identities that are impossible to see at once. (Nanowerk News) MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum ...
