"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

FOR the purposes of laboratory or lecture experiments it is convenient to use a pitch so high that the sounds are nearly or altogether inaudible. The wave-lengths (1 to 3 cm.) are then tolerably small ...

Does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? The answer goes against everything we thought we knew.

Specifically, the study uncovers a new form of quantum interference in molecule scattering. Unlike the more familiar "diffractive" interference that affects scattering angles (as in the double-slit ...

The quantum rules shaping molecular collisions are now coming into focus, offering fresh insights for chemistry and materials science. (Nanowerk News) The quantum rules shaping molecular collisions ...
