Metal nanoparticles behave like waves in high-stakes quantum experiment
Researchers from the University of Vienna and the University of Duisburg-Essen showed that metallic ...
There is no measurement that can directly observe the wave function of a quantum mechanical system, but the wave function is still enormously useful as its (complex) square represents the probability ...
“Positronium is the simplest atom composed of equal-mass constituents, and until it self-annihilates, it behaves as a neutral ...
One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...

Scientists see a positronium beam as a quantum matter wave for the 1st time
For the first time, physicists have watched a beam of positronium, a short‑lived atom made of an electron and its antimatter ...
The new research demonstrates for the first time that the wave nature of matter persists even at large scales, using massive ...
The same phenomenon was later confirmed for neutrons, helium atoms, and even large molecules, making matter-wave diffraction ...
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 ...
