The precise imaging of many-body systems, which are comprised of many interacting particles, can help to validate theoretical ...

The heart of quantum mechanics is the wave-particle duality: matter and light possess both wave-like and particle-like attributes. Typically, the wave-like properties are inferred indirectly from the ...

The Irish mathematician and physicist William Rowan Hamilton, who was born 220 years ago last month, is famous for carving some mathematical graffiti into Dublin's Broome Bridge in 1843.

Experiments led by Humphrey Maris, professor of physics at Brown, suggest that the quantum state of an electron -- the electron's wave function -- can be shattered into pieces and those pieces can be ...

Quantum computing, secure wireless communication and advances in quantum teleportation could be closer to reality now that a team of researchers has developed a more efficient way of measuring wave ...
