Scientists have made the first experimental observation of matter wave diffraction in a short-lived electron-positron atom.

A leading physicist argues the brain may operate like a quantum system—and that enhancing it could create humans who perceive ...

Researchers have shown that surprisingly large metal particles can behave according to quantum mechanics, existing in ...

Experiments reveal that metallic nanoparticles thousands of atoms wide can exist in quantum superposition, providing a stringent test of quantum mechanics. Matter wave in the spotlight: The image ...

In a paper published in Nature Photonics, the research team from the Center for Quantum Information and Communication – Ecole polytechnique de Bruxelles of Université libre de Bruxelles, has found an ...

Quantum mechanics theory predicts that, in addition to exhibiting particle-like behavior, particles of all sizes can also have wave-like properties. These properties can be represented using the wave ...

The most beautiful experiment in physics, according to a poll of Physics World readers, is the interference of single electrons in a Young’s double slit. Robert P Crease reports Simply beautiful – the ...
