When Calvinism is rejected on the basis of this perceived paradox, two precious things are lost: a reverence for God’s ...

Stevens’ team harnesses both the “wave-ness” and “particle-ness” of quantum objects to develop a groundbreaking imaging ...

Since its development 100 years ago, quantum mechanics has revolutionized our understanding of nature, revealing a bizarre ...

Atoms are the building blocks of all matter, from the air we breathe to every cell in our bodies. Yet despite their presence everywhere, no one has truly seen an atom with the naked eye ,until ...

In physics and chemistry, wave-particle duality holds that light and matter exhibit properties of both waves and of particles. A central concept of quantum mechanics, duality addresses the ...

Wave-particle duality is a fundamental fact of the Universe. But we don't see many objects moving around as waves. This is why it hurts when a golf ball hits you on the head: you and the golf ball ...

I thought they had shown the particle/wave duality of fullerene (720 AMU) in their work published in Nature in 1999. Was there some reason why their results are to be considered less impressive?

But until we figure out a way to test quantum gravity using gravitational waves, we won't know whether the "particle" part of wave-particle duality holds for gravitons.

Antimatter is made of both particles and waves, and physicists have proven it at the level of a single antimatter particle.
