Experiments reveal that metallic nanoparticles thousands of atoms wide can exist in quantum superposition, providing a ...

The famous double-slit experiment, which demonstrated that light is both a wave and a particle, has been performed using “slits in time”. The techniques involved present a new way to manipulate light ...

The particles have roughly half the diameter of the average virus, but being dense metallic spheres, they are more massive than most proteins in our body. The experimental setup was designed to test ...

Quantum physics is the realm of the strange. And one of the strangest discoveries in the field is also one of the most fundamental: Particles fired at barriers with two slits in them can act like ...

In a paper published in Nature Photonics, the research team from the Center for Quantum Information and Communication – Ecole polytechnique de Bruxelles of Université libre de Bruxelles, has found an ...

A century-old thought experiment on wave–particle duality is brought into the laboratory using a single trapped atom ...
