Light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, challenging traditional wave-particle thinking.

of classical interference (with waves): maxima and minima result from entangled bright (that couple) and dark (that do not couple) particle states," said Rempe. "I would say that our picture ...

In classical physics, waves can give rise to interference ... increase or decrease the likelihood of certain events. Two-particle interference adds another layer to this quantum interference ...

In the quantum world, observing a particle is not a passive act. If you shine light on a quantum object to measure its ...

Wave particle duality The photoelectric effect ... place if photons have a high enough frequency and have enough energy. Interference Constructive and destructive interference can be explained ...

Using a thermal sensor smaller than a grain of sand, engineers have measured the vibrations, or phonons, within individual molecules.

SQUIDs are highly sensitive magnetometers that exploit the quantum interference of superconducting loops ... Atomic interferometers use the wave-particle duality of atoms to create highly sensitive ...

Interference can arise with one source of waves where the waves travel different distances before meeting. The difference in the distance travelled (the path difference) must be a full number of ...
