An experiment measuring a single atom's recoil confirmed that observing a particle destroys interference, settling the ...
Scientists test Einstein’s quantum challenge with one atom, directly measuring when photon paths erase interference stripes.
A century-old thought experiment on wave–particle duality is brought into the laboratory using a single trapped atom ...

There’s a new record for the largest object placed in quantum interference – but it’s still teeny tiny
Researchers from the University of Vienna have reported quantum interference in metallic nanoparticles. These little spheres were made of between 5,000 and 10,000 sodium atoms and measured about 8 ...

Physicists just measured time without a clock at the quantum level
Physicists have now managed to track the passage of time inside a quantum event without using anything that looks like a traditional clock. Instead of ticking gears or oscillating crystals, they read ...
Athought experiment at the heart of an argument between famed physicists Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr in 1927 has finally ...
A sensitive matter-wave interferometer measuring moiré fringes offers force sensitivity comparable to quantum interference ...
The double-slit connection In their paper, the authors draw an elegant analogy to the famous double-slit experiment, where particles like electrons produce interference patterns when passed through ...
