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

Researchers use an updated version of slit experiment, and figure out who was correct between Einstein and Bohrs regarding ...

Physicists in China have brought one of Einstein’s thought experiments into reality—but not quite with the outcome he hoped ...

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 ...

A new theory of "dark photons" attempted to explain a centuries-old experiment in a new way this year, in an effort to change ...

An international collaboration of researchers has achieved a significant breakthrough in quantum technology, with the successful demonstration of quantum interference among several single photons ...

A new concept for energy transfer between gravitational waves and light. When massive cosmic objects such as black holes merge or neutron stars crash into one another, they can produce gravitational ...

Quantum physics is the realm of the strange. And one of the strangest discoveries in the field is also one of the most fundamental: Particles fired at barriers with two slits in them can act like ...

"When an experiment turns out very different from what is expected, scientists start questioning previous assumptions and look for new explanations," says Kues. They jointly developed their new theory ...
