Metal nanoparticles behave like waves in high-stakes quantum experiment
Researchers from the University of Vienna and the University of Duisburg-Essen showed that metallic ...
The double-slit experiment is the best demonstration of quantum weirdness, in which electrons simultaneously act like particles and waves and seemingly violate basic laws of physics. Now we’re trying ...
A century ago, Erwin Schrödinger came up with an equation that says how the quantum world behaves. Now scientists are asking ...
In 1971, graduate student Stuart Freedman and postdoctoral fellow John Clauser took over a room in the sub-basement of Birge Hall at the University of California, Berkeley, and built an experiment ...
