Quantum physics overturned classical ideas by showing that matter behaves very differently at the ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...

Metal clusters made of thousands of atoms showed quantum interference, offering new insight into how large objects follow ...

For more than a century, scientists have known that waves can behave in ways that seem to defy common sense, from freak walls of water in the open ocean to ghostly ripples inside atoms. What has ...

Experiments reveal that metallic nanoparticles thousands of atoms wide can exist in quantum superposition, providing a ...

The same phenomenon was later confirmed for neutrons, helium atoms, and even large molecules, making matter-wave diffraction ...

“Positronium is the simplest atom composed of equal-mass constituents, and until it self-annihilates, it behaves as a neutral ...

Light's behavior seems counterintuitive. That is, until you figure out light is a wave. The way light behaves can seem very counterintuitive, and many physicists would agree with that, but once you ...

For the first time, researchers from Tokyo University of Science have observed wave-like interference patterns from ...
