(Nanowerk News) The investigation and exploitation of light-matter-interaction in optical resonators is one of the central research topics in the Quantum Dynamics Division of Professor Gerhard Rempe, ...

About time: Romain Tirole from Imperial College London and colleagues have created a temporal version of the famous double-slit experiment (Courtesy: Thomas Angus, Imperial College London) Thomas ...

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 subtlest experiment in quantum mechanics is also one of the simplest: send a stream of particles through two openings in a barrier, and you’ll produce an interference pattern because the particles ...

This article is an extended version of the article “The double-slit experiment” that appeared in the September 2002 issue of Physics World (p15). It has been further extended to include three letters ...

This article was published in Scientific American’s former blog network and reflects the views of the author, not necessarily those of Scientific American Quantum mechanics is one of the most ...

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 ...

The interior of the vacuum chamber during a scattering experiment. The detector is shown in grey (top right) and the Au(111) gold surface is shown in yellow. The lines indicate the path of the ...
