Researchers have finally resolved a century-old debate over the famous "double slit" experiment, according to new research.

Light has always been the stage on which quantum mechanics performs its strangest tricks, and the double-slit experiment is ...

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

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) The double-slit experiment is a famous quantum physics experiment that shows that light exhibits behavior of both a particle and a wave. In a new paper, researchers claim ...

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 ...

A team of physicists has reimagined one of science’s most iconic experiments—but in the dimension of time. Researchers at Imperial College London have taken the classic double-slit test and turned it ...

Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to ...

In the late 1970s, legendary physicist John Wheeler proposed a radical question: Exactly when does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? And does it really matter?

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...
