The film "Introduction to Holography" explains the principles of holography, focusing on how it differs from traditional photography by creating three-dimensional images. It discusses the role of wave ...
[Stoppi] has taken on a fascinating project involving the interference of thin layers, a phenomenon often observed in everyday life but rarely explored in such depth. This project delves into the ...
Complementarity A new twist on the double-slit experiment. (Courtesy: Shutterstock/Andrey VP) One of the most counterintuitive concepts in physics – the idea that quantum objects are complementary, ...
When wave pass through each other, they interfere, producing neat effects. Artist Gary Drostle harnesses the interference patterns as light passes through rippling water to create fish pond mosaics.
Scientists test Einstein’s quantum challenge with one atom, directly measuring when photon paths erase interference stripes.
At the smallest scales of nature, the rules of the world shift in ways that can feel unsettling and beautiful at the same time. Matter no longer behaves like solid objects moving along clear paths.
Light is well known to exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, as imaged here in this 2015 photograph. What's less well appreciated is that matter particles also exhibit those wave-like ...
ANYONE who is experimentally familiar with the production of Liesegang rings in gelatine films and other allied phenomena might well feel tempted to believe that such periodical precipitates are to be ...
(Nanowerk News) In their new study ("Electron Vortices in Photoionization by Circularly Polarized Attosecond Pulses"), physicists Anthony Starace and Jean Marcel Ngoko Djiokap report an unusual ...
