The famous cat experiment in 1935 of the Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger became one of the most iconic and debated concepts in science. Both for its intellectual depth and its unusual imagery, ...

Physicists confirm that light has two identities that are impossible to see at once. (Nanowerk News) MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) The double-slit experiment is a famous quantum physics experiment that shows that light exhibits behavior of both a particle and a wave. In a new paper, researchers claim ...

Physicists have put a decades-old idea about why the strange rules of quantum mechanics disappear in our everyday world to one of its toughest experimental tests yet. Deep beneath Italy’s Gran Sasso ...

While seeking a visual metaphor to depict the wave-like behavior of matter, Julian Voss-Andreae forged a unique path merging quantum physics, art, and business. Quantum Man is a 2.5-m-tall sculpture ...
