Now, two unrelated-but-similar experiments confirm that, in a double-slit experiment, detection of a photon’s path (its ...
"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of physics.

Bright and dark photon states redefine light’s interference mystery
Perhaps one of the most famous experiments in physics has been giving us the wrong message all these years. For nearly two ...

Physicists in China have brought one of Einstein’s thought experiments into reality—but not quite with the outcome he hoped ...
(Inside Science) — One of the strangest things about quantum mechanics is that a particle can act like a wave. In particular, in a double-slit experiment, individual particles that are shot through a ...
The precise methodology of Richard Feynman's famous double-slit thought-experiment – a cornerstone of quantum mechanics that showed how electrons behave as both a particle and a wave – has been ...
