Two of the forefathers of quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr, had a famous argument over whether light is a wave ...

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 ...

Imperial physicists have recreated the famous double-slit experiment, which showed light behaving as particles and a wave, in time rather than space. The experiment relies on materials that can change ...

Everything on the electromagnetic spectrum has some properties of both waves and particles, but it’s difficult to imagine a ...

(Aitor Diago/Moment/Getty Images) For the first time, physicists have observed that 'holes' in light can move faster than the ...

Artist's impression, inspired by the work of the artist Maurits Cornelis Escher, of the continuous morphing between particle- and wave-like behavior of light achieved in the Bristol experiment. This ...

Researchers at Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, have directly tracked “dark points” in light waves, spots where the ...

Dark structures inside light waves can briefly move faster than light without breaking relativity or transmitting energy or information.

A dark point inside a wave of light sounds like a contradiction. It is also something researchers say they have now viewed in ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...
