The double-slit experiment, first performed by [Thomas Young] in 1801 provided the first definitive proof of the dual wave-particle nature of photons. A similar experiment can be performed that shows ...

“Positronium is the simplest atom composed of equal-mass constituents, and until it self-annihilates, it behaves as a neutral ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...

For the first time, researchers have performed a version of the famous double-slit experiment with antimatter particles. The double-slit experiment demonstrates one of the fundamental tenets of ...

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 ...

It's time for the latest update in confirming things we already knew—and, as always, it's being far more interesting than you might expect. Simply put, scientists have conducted a super-advanced ...

Quantum physics is the realm of the strange. And one of the strangest discoveries in the field is also one of the most fundamental: Particles fired at barriers with two slits in them can act like ...
