Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have uncovered experimental evidence that ...
Quantum physics paints a strange picture of the world, one filled with spooky connections, unsettling uncertainties ...
Researchers have demonstrated that a nanoparticle of 7,000 sodium atoms can act as a wave, creating a record-setting ...
Researchers from the University of Vienna have reported quantum interference in metallic nanoparticles. These little spheres were made of between 5,000 and 10,000 sodium atoms and measured about 8 ...
A microscopic clump of sodium has become the largest object ever to be observed as a wave, improving upon previous records by ...
To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...
Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, are expected to outperform ...
Record-breaking experiment shows that a cluster of thousands of atoms can act like a wave as well as a particle.
A century-old thought experiment on wave–particle duality is brought into the laboratory using a single trapped atom ...
Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.
A single nanoparticle made of glass (a white point near the center of the photo) is confined in an optical potential created with a focused laser beam. By detecting the light scattered by the ...
