A sensitive matter-wave interferometer measuring moiré fringes offers force sensitivity comparable to quantum interference ...

Experiments reveal that metallic nanoparticles thousands of atoms wide can exist in quantum superposition, providing a ...

A century-old thought experiment on wave–particle duality is brought into the laboratory using a single trapped atom ...

Researchers from the University of Vienna have reported quantum interference in metallic nanoparticles. These little spheres were made of between 5,000 and 10,000 sodium atoms and measured about 8 ...

Schrödinger’s cat just got a little bit fatter. Physicists have created the largest ever ‘superposition’ — a quantum state in ...

The interior of the vacuum chamber during a scattering experiment. The detector is shown in grey (top right) and the Au(111) gold surface is shown in yellow. The lines indicate the path of the ...

EPFL physicists have found a way to measure the time involved in quantum events and found it depends on the symmetry of the ...
