Quantum physics overturned classical ideas by showing that matter behaves very differently at the ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...

The double-slit experiment is one of the most famous experiments in physics and definitely one of the weirdest. It demonstrates that matter and energy (such as light) can exhibit both wave and ...

Researchers from the University of Vienna and the University of Duisburg-Essen showed that metallic ...

The same phenomenon was later confirmed for neutrons, helium atoms, and even large molecules, making matter-wave diffraction ...

According to quantum mechanics, ordinary matter, not just light, can exhibit wave properties. The wave nature of matter is described by a 'quantum superposition' state, where physical states like posi ...

Light is well known to exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, as imaged here in this 2015 photograph. What's less well appreciated is that matter particles also exhibit those wave-like ...

For the first time, researchers from Tokyo University of Science have observed wave-like interference patterns from ...
