Light has always been the stage on which quantum mechanics performs its strangest tricks, and the double-slit experiment is ...
"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of physics.
Perhaps one of the most famous experiments in physics has been giving us the wrong message all these years. For nearly two ...
A physicist has proposed a bold experiment that could allow gravitational waves to be manipulated using laser light. By ...
In a first, scientists have shown that they can send light through “slits in time” in time. The new experiment is a twist on a 220-year-old demonstration, in which light shines through two slits in a ...
The double-slit connection In their paper, the authors draw an elegant analogy to the famous double-slit experiment, where particles like electrons produce interference patterns when passed through ...
