A team of quantum physicists has taken a concept that once lived purely in equations and turned it into hardware reality, creating a single particle of light that behaves as if it occupies 37 distinct ...

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, ...

Physicists want to ramp up their efforts to weigh neutrinos, which are perhaps the most mysterious of all elementary particles. Currently, only one experiment in the world has a shot at making such a ...

The ALPS (Any Light Particle Search) experiment, which stretches a total length of 250 metres, is looking for a particularly light type of new elementary particle. Using twenty-four recycled ...

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 ...

(Nanowerk News) The world’s most sensitive model-independent experiment to search for particularly light particles, of which dark matter might be composed, starts today at DESY in the form of the ...
