In the late 1970s, legendary physicist John Wheeler proposed a radical question: Exactly when does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? And does it really matter?
The original paper by Kim et al. on the Delayed Choice Quantum Eraser suggests the concept of retrocausality, which stems ...
In quantum world, particles like photons can behave like particles (localized points) or waves (spreading out, showing interference patterns). The classic double-slit experiment is a good ...
MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum physics. Their findings demonstrate, with atomic-level precision, the dual yet evasive nature of ...
Several weeks ago I picked up “The Elegant Universe” because I thought it would have information on The Ultimate Theory. Soon afterwards, I picked up “How to Teach Physics To Your Dog” in order to get ...
A century-old thought experiment on wave–particle duality is brought into the laboratory using a single trapped atom ...
