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

For more than a century, the double-slit experiment has been the sharpest test of what reality is made of, and of whether ...

A single atom as a movable slit: Researchers realize Einstein's thought experiment in original form, observing ...

Perhaps one of the most famous experiments in physics has been giving us the wrong message all these years. For nearly two ...

Physicists in China have brought one of Einstein’s thought experiments into reality—but not quite with the outcome he hoped ...

(Inside Science) — One of the strangest things about quantum mechanics is that a particle can act like a wave. In particular, in a double-slit experiment, individual particles that are shot through a ...

The precise methodology of Richard Feynman's famous double-slit thought-experiment – a cornerstone of quantum mechanics that showed how electrons behave as both a particle and a wave – has been ...

A photon was apparently detected in two places at once in a twist on the classic double-slit experiment, but many physicists ...
