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

Perhaps one of the most famous experiments in physics has been giving us the wrong message all these years. For nearly two ...

Physicists have engineered photons that behave as if they inhabit a space far richer than the familiar three dimensions, ...

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

A team of researchers has demonstrated the ultimate sensitivity allowed by quantum physics in measuring the time delay between two photons. By measuring their interference at a beam-splitter through ...

New research has unveiled a new advancement in Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) technology, offering unparalleled sensitivity and precision in measuring the distance of remote objects. This ...

Driving late at night, you come upon a red light and stop the car. You lift your hand wearily to block the red glow streaming through your windshield. Suddenly, both the green and yellow lights come ...

For the first time, scientists have observed quantum interference—a wavelike interaction between particles related to the weird quantum phenomenon of entanglement—occurring between two different kinds ...

Duality ellipse The amount of coherence is linked to the amount of waveness and particleness of a quantum system through an duality ellipse relation. The coherence, modulated by the object shape, can ...

A team of researchers has demonstrated the ultimate sensitivity allowed by quantum physics in measuring the time delay between two photons. This breakthrough has significant implications for a range ...
