Can a photon be caught behaving like a wave and a particle in the same run of an experiment? For almost a century, that ...

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

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 ...

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

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 ...

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

A photon was apparently detected in two places at once in a twist on the classic double-slit experiment, but many physicists ...

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

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 ...

THE writer has found the following simple arrangement well adapted for the study of the visibility of fringes arising from a double slit and a “source” slit of variable width. A double slit, ruled ...
