Experiments reveal that metallic nanoparticles thousands of atoms wide can exist in quantum superposition, providing a ...

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

The classic signature of wave-particle duality in quantum particles is the wave-like interference pattern that is produced when a beam of particles passes through a ‘double-slit’. Researchers have ...

A cluster of 7,000 sodium atoms has just been coaxed into behaving as a single, ghostly wave, stretching quantum weirdness ...

Quantum physics tells us about the properties and behaviors of atomic and subatomic particles. But scientists have long held the belief that the rules that govern the microscopic world should also be ...

I have suggested before that the one thing “everyone knows” about quantum mechanics is that the quantum world is fuzzy and uncertain. Actually, there’s another thing, too. “Everyone” has heard of ...

To the recording studio to study interference and diffraction of sound waves. Unit 6 Segment D: Sound: Diffraction and Interference We head back to the recording studio to study interference and ...
