Albert Einstein was right about a shocking among of things, but not necessarily everything.

Light has always been the stage on which quantum mechanics performs its strangest tricks, and the double-slit experiment is still the star of that show. A new, ultra-clean version of this classic test ...

MIT physicists have recreated the most iconic experiment in quantum physics — this time with individual atoms acting as the slits and single photons barely grazing past. Their results have firmly ...

Physicists confirm that light has two identities that are impossible to see at once. (Nanowerk News) MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum ...

The double-slit experiment is one of the most famous experiments in physics and definitely one of the weirdest. It demonstrates that matter and energy (such as light) can exhibit both wave and ...

Several weeks ago I picked up “The Elegant Universe” because I thought it would have information on The Ultimate Theory. Soon afterwards, I picked up “How to Teach Physics To Your Dog” in order to get ...

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 ...

Thomas Young, born 250 years ago this week, was a polymath who made seminal contributions in fields from physics to Egyptology. But perhaps his most enduring legacy is proving Isaac Newton wrong about ...
