MIT physicists have recreated the most iconic experiment in quantum physics — this time with individual atoms acting as the ...

A groundbreaking experiment demonstrates yet again that light exists both as a wave and a particle in the quantum world—but ...

This quantum balancing act—long debated by Einstein and Bohr—was tested without traditional “spring” components, instead ...

A new version of the famous double-slit experiment showed that it's impossible to measure light as both a wave and a particle ...

Physicists at MIT recreated the double-slit experiment using individual photons and atoms held in laser light, uncovering the ...

MIT researchers used ultracold atoms to isolate the quantum trade-off between wave interference and particle path detection.

It's time for the latest update in confirming things we already knew—and, as always, it's being far more interesting than you ...

Now, a new double-slit–style experiment, reported online May 3 in Science Advances, has confirmed the wavelike nature of the electron’s antimatter counterpart: the positron.

You can actually see the diffraction pattern in the double slit experiment right now. Instead of using electrons, we will use light, and instead of a double slit, we will use a single slit.

The classic double slit experiment shows that both light and normal matter can behave as both particles and waves in certain circumstances. New research shows the same holds true for antimatter.
