There is no measurement that can directly observe the wave function of a quantum mechanical system, but the wave function is ...

Researchers from the University of Vienna and the University of Duisburg-Essen showed that metallic ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...

“Positronium is the simplest atom composed of equal-mass constituents, and until it self-annihilates, it behaves as a neutral ...

The same phenomenon was later confirmed for neutrons, helium atoms, and even large molecules, making matter-wave diffraction ...

The new research demonstrates for the first time that the wave nature of matter persists even at large scales, using massive ...

Extremely cold atoms have been nudged to self-magnify their quantum states so they can be imaged in unprecedented detail. This could help researchers better understand what quantum particles do in odd ...

Quantum mechanics describes the unconventional properties of subatomic particles, like their ability to exist in a superposition of multiple states, as popularized by the Schrödinger's cat analogy, ...

For the first time, researchers from Tokyo University of Science have observed wave-like interference patterns from ...
