"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...
Perhaps one of the most famous experiments in physics has been giving us the wrong message all these years. For nearly two ...
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 ...
Artificial intelligence is colliding with a hard physical limit: the energy and heat of today’s silicon-based chips. As ...
When two black holes merge or two neutron stars collide, gravitational waves can be generated. They spread at the speed of ...
Even for scientists who have dedicated their lives to understanding gravity, the force’s relentless downward pull is sometimes a drag. Consider, for instance, the researchers who study Bose-Einstein ...
