Imperial physicists have recreated the famous double-slit experiment, which showed light behaving as particles and a wave, in time rather than space. The experiment relies on materials that can change ...

The famous double-slit experiment, which demonstrated that light is both a wave and a particle, has been performed using “slits in time”. The techniques involved present a new way to manipulate light ...

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

When propagating through a material, a laser beam of significant intensity slightly modifies the density of the physical medium and generates tiny vibrations. These acoustic oscillations distort the ...

Scientists review research on gravitational wave detectors as a historical example of quantum technologies and examine the fundamental research on the connection between quantum physics and gravity.

Light has always been described as an elegant partnership of electric and magnetic fields, yet for nearly two centuries physicists treated the magnetic side as a quiet background player. New ...

Scientists at the X-ray free-electron laser SwissFEL have realized a long-pursued experimental goal in physics: to show how ...

WASHINGTON, March 15, 2022 -- Quantum physical experiments exploring the motion of macroscopic or heavy bodies under gravitational forces require protection from any environmental noise and highly ...
