Scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the U.S. have made a groundbreaking achievement after they captured the first images of individual atoms freely interacting in space.
Now, two unrelated-but-similar experiments confirm that, in a double-slit experiment, detection of a photon’s path (its ...
MIT physicists have taken the first-ever direct images of individual atoms interacting freely in space. Their findings, published in the journal Physical Review Letters, reveal hidden quantum ...
Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to ...
Every second of modern life runs on precision — from GPS navigation to the time signals that keep the internet in sync. But scientists at MIT and Harvard have just taken precision to an entirely new ...
Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible. Technologies ranging from computer chips to medical-imaging machines rely on the ...
The 2025 Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to a trio of scientists – a Briton, a Frenchman and an American – for their ground-breaking discoveries in the field of quantum mechanics. John Clarke, ...
