For more than a century, the double-slit experiment has been the sharpest test of what reality is made of, and of whether ...
Quantum mechanics is weird. When you think you have reached the bottom of its weirdness, you always discover a new ...
God does not play dice with the universe,” Albert Einstein famously declared in 1927, sparking one of the most enduring ...
Scientists in China have performed an experiment first proposed by Albert Einstein almost a century ago when he sought to ...
A photon was apparently detected in two places at once in a twist on the classic double-slit experiment, but many physicists ...
"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

A new theory of "dark photons" attempted to explain a centuries-old experiment in a new way this year, in an effort to change ...
In a nutshell, MIT's ultra double-slit experiment provides compelling evidence against the local realism of Einstein but in favour of the indeterminacy of quantum. Through the demonstration of the ...
Schematic of the MIT experiment: Two single atoms floating in a vacuum chamber are illuminated by a laser beam and act as the two slits. The interference of the scattered light is recorded with a ...
