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

Coherent laser ranging systems confront a fundamental trade-off: higher resolution typically comes with increased system complexity and cost. Researchers from Tsinghua University have demonstrated a ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the observation that matter behaves differently at the smallest scales. A key ...

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

Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.

A record-breaking experiment shows that a cluster of thousands of atoms can act like a wave as well as a particle ...

The team have pushed the boundaries of quantum mechanics beyond what some thought possible. Now they want to go even further ...
