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

In 1920, Danish physicist Niels Bohr proposed that although light (photons) has a dual nature, behaving as both particle and wave, it’s impossible to observe this duality at the same time. This is ...

Researchers at The Grainger College of Engineering are using atom-photon entanglement to work towards the future of quantum ...

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

A team of physicists has coaxed a single, photon-like particle into behaving as if it lives in 37 different quantum ...

Physicists at the University of Stuttgart, Germany have teleported a quantum state between photons generated by two different ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Physicists have begun to explore the proton as if it were a subatomic planet. Cutaway maps display newfound details of the particle’s ...

Using two optical frequency combs and a photon counter, the experiments open up exciting prospects for conducting dual-comb spectroscopy in low-light conditions and they pave the way for novel ...

Scientists have, for the first time, experimentally proven that angular momentum is conserved even when a single photon splits into two, pushing quantum physics to its most fundamental limits. Using ...

Physicists have begun to explore the proton as if it were a subatomic planet. Cutaway maps display newfound details of the particle’s interior. The proton’s core features pressures more intense than ...
