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

A new theory of "dark photons" attempted to explain a centuries-old experiment in a new way this year, in an effort to change ...

Physicists from Imperial College London have achieved a groundbreaking milestone in quantum physics by reimagining the ...

A paradox at the heart of quantum physics has been tested in an extraordinary fashion, pushing the boundaries of human intuition beyond breaking point by measuring a pulse of light in 37 dimensions.

Physicists have taken quantum strangeness to an extraordinary new level by measuring light across 37 dimensions. Their groundbreaking experiment pushes quantum mechanics beyond classical expectations, ...

Does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? The answer goes against everything we thought we knew.

Schematic of the MIT experiment: Two single atoms floating in a vacuum chamber are illuminated by a laser beam and act as the two slits. The interference of the scattered light is recorded with a ...

More than 200 years ago, Count Rumford showed that heat isn’t a mysterious substance but something you can generate endlessly ...

Teleportation has quietly shifted from pure fantasy to a working laboratory tool, and the latest experiments are starting to ...

A thought experiment that was at the heart of an argument between famed physicists Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr in 1927 has finally been made real. Its findings elucidate one of the core mysteries ...

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 ...
