Fragments of energy may be the fundamental building blocks of the universe. The theory combines the ideas of particles and waves into a concentration of energy that flows throughout space and time.

It's time for the latest update in confirming things we already knew—and, as always, it's being far more interesting than you might expect. Simply put, scientists have conducted a super-advanced ...

A theoretical framework proposing a de Broglie–Schwarzschild resonance between quantum wave behavior and gravitational mass in engineered systems of tungsten toroid, graphene, and nanoparticle cloud.

In a quiet lab at MIT, a group of physicists may have just resolved one of the most iconic debates in the history of science. Using state-of-the-art tools and techniques that Albert Einstein and Niels ...

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) scientists performing what they described as an “idealized” version of the infamous double-slit experiment, showing light exists as both a particle and a ...

Physicists confirm that light has two identities that are impossible to see at once. (Nanowerk News) MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum ...

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 ...

Physicists have discovered a new formula that fully quantifies how quantum objects switch between wave-like and particle-like behaviors unlocking both deeper understanding and new applications in ...
