Photoionization mass spectrometry has transformed analytical chemistry, enabling complex chemical analysis and celebrating a ...

Photons are particles of light, or waves, or something like that, right? [Mithuna Yoganathan] explains this conundrum in more detail than you probably got in your high school physics class. While ...

According to the studies of quantum mechanics, light can act simultaneously as a particle and a wave. However, scientists have never been able to capture light in both of its forms at the same time— ...

Physicists use a 350-year-old theorem that explains the workings of pendulums and planets to reveal new properties of light waves. Since the 17th century, when Isaac Newton and Christiaan Huygens ...
