For over 100 years, quantum physics has taught us that light is both a wave and a particle. Now, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have performed a daring experiment using ...

Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to Albert Einstein’s instincts about reality. By stripping classic thought ...

Scientists measured negative time in a quantum physics experiment using photons and rubidium atoms, calling it an unusual behavior.

Main ideas of the article are further expanded on in this online lecture by the author. Faced with this problem, I realized that the ultraviolet radiation he described might be explained using quantum ...

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 ...

Quantum geometry describes quantum states in systems with changing system parameters, such as an electron spinning in a magnetic field whose direction is slowly changing. The state of the electron ...

Light is both a wave and a particle – or so we have thought for about a hundred years. Since the advent of quantum physics, light has been understood to exhibit wave-particle duality. One part of this ...

Highly anticipated: Scientists at the University of Arizona have demonstrated a method to capture and manipulate quantum uncertainty in real time using rapid pulses of light, marking what they ...

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 ...
