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

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 ...

(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 ...

The double slit experiment reveals that observing light changes its behavior, making it act as both a wave and a particle.

Physicists in China have brought one of Einstein’s thought experiments into reality—but not quite with the outcome he hoped ...

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