"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 ...

Through most of this season, the Steelers have been a puzzling team. They’re 1-5 against teams currently in playoff position, ...

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

A new concept for energy transfer between gravitational waves and light. When massive cosmic objects such as black holes merge or neutron stars crash into one another, they can produce gravitational ...

Singapore reports no 5G interference cases affecting aircraft operations, as global aviation bodies flag potential risks to ...

When two black holes merge or two neutron stars collide, gravitational waves can be generated. They spread at the speed of ...

Researchers have used lab models to study how rogue waves form, but these don't always transfer over to the natural world. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Abstract illustration of a quantum double-slit experiment. Credit: ZME Science/Midjourney. MIT physicists have recreated the most iconic experiment in quantum physics — this time with individual atoms ...

Physicists at MIT recreated the double-slit experiment using individual photons and atoms held in laser light, uncovering the true limits of light’s wave–particle duality. Their results proved ...

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 ...
