Einstein’s century-old challenge to Bohr settled by quantum test
God does not play dice with the universe,” Albert Einstein famously declared in 1927, sparking one of the most enduring ...
A new theory of "dark photons" attempted to explain a centuries-old experiment in a new way this year, in an effort to change ...
More than 200 years ago, the English scientist Thomas Young carried out a famous test known as the “double-slit experiment.” He shone a beam of light at a screen with two slits in it, and observed ...

How the 'delayed choice quantum eraser' experiment got us to rethink reality
Does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? The answer goes against everything we thought we knew.
The precise methodology of Richard Feynman's famous double-slit thought-experiment – a cornerstone of quantum mechanics that showed how electrons behave as both a particle and a wave – has been ...
