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

The film explores the dual nature of light, demonstrating its behavior as both a wave and a particle through an experiment involving a double slit. It shows how light creates an interference pattern, ...

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 ...

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