The presence of Hemingway, Stein, Joyce, Picasso, Dalí, Man Ray and other influencers of the 1920s are still being felt — and ...

Paris’s Louvre Museum has always been a cultural touchstone, but a seven-minute raid on the centuries-old art institution ...

One of the most infamous heists in the cultural institution’s history was the 1911 theft of the Mona Lisa—when Pablo Picasso ...

The new show focuses on the famed Impressionist’s works on paper. Were they masterpieces? Less than? That is for visitors to ...

DLR researchers have succeeded, for the first time, in diffracting matter waves of atoms through a solid; until now, this had only been possible with electrons and neutrons. This opens up new avenues ...

Not all light phenomena can be explained using the wave model. The photoelectric effect is a phenomenon that only occurs under certain conditions. The wave model of light would not predict these ...

Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible. Technologies ranging from computer chips to medical-imaging machines rely on the ...

Schematic: The experiment took place in a dye-filled cavity between two mirrors. The bottom mirror was nanostructured to create two waveguides that directed the light. In the primary waveguide, ...

While classical physics separated natural phenomena into distinct wave and particle categories (light as waves and matter as particles) quantum behavior transcends these distinctions, revealing that ...

In a landmark experiment that bridges a century of quantum theory and modern technology, physicists have, for the first time, directly observed individual free-range atoms interacting in open space.
