A new version of the famous double-slit experiment showed that it's impossible to measure light as both a wave and a particle ...

Physicists at MIT recreated the double-slit experiment using individual photons and atoms held in laser light, uncovering the ...

In the world of quantum physics, the rules that govern reality behave in ways that challenge what we think we know. Particles ...

MIT researchers used ultracold atoms to isolate the quantum trade-off between wave interference and particle path detection.

This quantum balancing act—long debated by Einstein and Bohr—was tested without traditional “spring” components, instead ...

Many-Worlds Interpretation Challenged As Photon Seems To Be In Two Places At Once A new twist on a classic experiment has shown that photons might really take two paths at the same time.
