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

For the first time, physicists have watched a beam of positronium, a short‑lived atom made of an electron and its antimatter ...

For the first time, researchers from Tokyo University of Science have observed wave-like interference patterns from ...

Quantum physics overturned classical ideas by showing that matter behaves very differently at the ...

How would Einstein have reacted to Bell’s theorem and the experimental results derived from it? Alain Aspect’s new ...

Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, are expected to outperform ...

Using a highly coherent positronium beam, the researchers observed clear diffraction patterns after transmission through a ...

Here’s what you’ll learn in this story: Time might actually have 3 dimensions. But it also means that the space would actually be one-dimensional, instead of the three dimensions we’re familiar with.

Atom optics is the study of the wave-like properties of beams of atoms. Wave–particle duality — a central principle of quantum mechanics — implies that effects traditionally associated with waves, ...
