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 ...

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

(Inside Science) — One of the strangest things about quantum mechanics is that a particle can act like a wave. In particular, in a double-slit experiment, individual particles that are shot through a ...

An international research team led by physicists from Collaborative Research Centre 1238, 'Control and Dynamics of Quantum Materials' at the University of Cologne has implemented a new variant of the ...

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