Can a photon be caught behaving like a wave and a particle in the same run of an experiment? For almost a century, that ...

Even younger: illustration of the new double-slit experiment using resonant inelastic X-ray scattering on an iridium oxide crystal. An intense beam of high-energy X-ray photons (violet) hits two ...

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

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 ...

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

About time: Romain Tirole from Imperial College London and colleagues have created a temporal version of the famous double-slit experiment (Courtesy: Thomas Angus, Imperial College London) Thomas ...

New research offers an intriguing variation on the famous experiment, which proved light behaves as both a particle and a wave. Reading time 2 minutes A team of physicists has recreated a classic ...

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 ...

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 ...
