Three's company: interference patterns for one to four slits (expand for full image) A group of physicists in Austria has directed a beam of large molecules at a series of extremely narrow slits to ...

The physics of the microrealm involves two famous and bizarre concepts: The first is that prior to observation, it is impossible to know with certainty the outcome of a measurement on a particle; ...

Quantum superposition is a phenomenon in which a tiny particle can be in two states at the same time — but only if it is not being directly observed. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

Wouldn't it be fascinating to live in New York and London at the same time? In the standard of everyday life, this is equivalent to daydreaming or sheer fantasy. Nevertheless, this is a perfectly ...

Scientists created quantum superposition states at temperatures up to 60 times hotter than their environment, challenging the assumption that quantum effects require extreme cold. This discovery could ...

At the heart of Einstein’s theory of gravity (general relativity) is the equivalence principle. The equivalence principle says that there is no difference between being stationary and subject to ...

“More than one reality exists” screams the headline. Cue sighs of tired dread from physicists everywhere as they wonder what otherwise bland result has been spun out of control. In this case, though, ...
