WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — New experimental evidence of a collective behavior of electrons to form "quasiparticles" called "anyons" has been reported by a team of scientists at Purdue University. Anyons ...

Because the electrons can pass through either slit, the waves emerging on the other side can interact and recombine in complex ways, producing an interference pattern. When the peak of one wave ...

Physicists have now managed to track the passage of time inside a quantum event without using anything that looks like a traditional clock. Instead of ticking gears or oscillating crystals, they read ...

(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 ...

Researchers at Osaka University demonstrated that using multiple high-energy laser beamlets to accelerate electron and ion beams improved the energy transfer efficiency. This method can aid in ...

IN 1924, Prince Louis de Broglie put forward the thesis that all material particles, and in particular electrons, have properties analogous to those of a train of waves. This view, which is now ...

Physicists found electrons synchronizing in star-shaped Kagome crystals, showing geometry can tune quantum behavior and shape material function. (Nanowerk News) Physicists at the Max Planck Institute ...
