MIT researchers used ultracold atoms to isolate the quantum trade-off between wave interference and particle path detection.

A groundbreaking experiment demonstrates yet again that light exists both as a wave and a particle in the quantum world—but ...

The experiment showed that Bohr was definitely correct when he argued for complementarity, and that Einstein had got it wrong. The more atom-rustling that was measured, the weaker the diffraction ...

MIT’s quantum experiment validates Bohr’s theory and disproves Einstein’s local realism using ultracold atoms and single ...

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 ...

In a striking display of quantum physics, a team of researchers has recreated one of science’s most legendary ...

Einstein and Bohr would have never thought that this is possible, to perform such an experiment with single atoms and single photons,” said Wolfgang Ketterle, head of the MIT group whose new ...

MIT physicists perform the most precise double-slit experiment using ultracold atoms, confirming Bohr’s quantum theory over ...

For nearly a hundred years, one of the most celebrated minds in science, Albert Einstein, had a lingering quantum thought ...

MIT scientist built an idealized, atomic-scale version of the famous double slit experiment which showed Albert Einstein was ...

A groundbreaking quantum experiment conducted by MIT physicists has turned a major page in the long-standing debate between ...

This quantum balancing act—long debated by Einstein and Bohr—was tested without traditional “spring” components, instead ...
