A team of researchers at University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) has reconstructed one of Albert Einstein’s most ...

Antimatter isn't just made of antiparticles, it's also made of waves. Now we know that this holds true even at the level of a single antimatter particle. Physicists have known for a long time that ...

Exceptionally precise' set-up mimics thought experiment devised by sceptical genius to disprove the then-emerging field For ...

Far from being a solely quantum mechanical phenomenon, interference occurs with all kinds of waves, including water waves and sound waves. Interference is the process in which two or more waves of the ...

Matter waves constitute a crucial feature of quantum mechanics, where particles have wave properties in addition to particle characteristics. This wave-particle duality was postulated already in 1924 ...

Imperial physicists have recreated the famous double-slit experiment, which showed light behaving as particles and a wave, in time rather than space. The experiment relies on materials that can change ...

In quantum mechanics particles can behave as waves and take many paths through an experiment. It requires only combinations of pairs of paths, rather than three or more, to determine the probability ...

Most people think of Sir Isaac Newton as the father of gravity. But for some physicists Newton's "dusty mirror" experiment has served as a launching pad for them to keenly watch the X-ray induced ...
