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

For more than a century, the double-slit experiment has been the sharpest test of what reality is made of, and of whether ...

Researchers have finally resolved a century-old debate over the famous "double slit" experiment, according to new research.

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

A single atom as a movable slit: Researchers realize Einstein's thought experiment in original form, observing ...

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 ...

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 ...

Thomas Young, born 250 years ago this week, was a polymath who made seminal contributions in fields from physics to Egyptology. But perhaps his most enduring legacy is proving Isaac Newton wrong about ...

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 ...
