The quantum physics of massive particles has intrigued physicists for more than 80 years, since it predicts that even complex particles can exhibit wave-like behaviour – in conflict with our everyday ...

(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 ...

The diffraction spikes so familiar to us in space images are an intrinsic property of the telescope. Reflecting telescopes have two mirrors: a large primary and a smaller secondary. Light hits the ...

Researchers demonstrate that some forms of quantum behavior can only occur via pairwise interactions, a finding that limits the number of ways in which we can reconcile quantum mechanics with ...
