MIT physicists perform the most precise double-slit experiment using ultracold atoms, confirming Bohr’s quantum theory over ...
A new version of the famous double-slit experiment showed that it's impossible to measure light as both a wave and a particle at the same time, thanks to quantum physics' uncertainty principle.
In a striking display of quantum physics, a team of researchers has recreated one of science’s most legendary ...
For nearly a hundred years, one of the most celebrated minds in science, Albert Einstein, had a lingering quantum thought ...
Unfortunately for Einstein, all work done subsequently – including experiments that used springs – does point to the interference pattern disappearing when the photon's path is detected. In the latest ...
Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible. Technologies ...
MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum physics. Their findings ...
The theory of quantum mechanics has transformed daily life since being proposed a century ago, yet how it works remains a ...
A groundbreaking quantum experiment conducted by MIT physicists has turned a major page in the long-standing debate between ...
Nature survey shows that disagreement about the meaning of quantum physics remains strong, even 100 years in. And that’s OK.
Interestingly, it has definitively resolved a long-standing debate between quantum giants Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr ...
This quantum balancing act—long debated by Einstein and Bohr—was tested without traditional “spring” components, instead relying on atomic “fuzziness” to confirm Bohr’s view: you can’t observe both ...
