A paradox at the heart of quantum physics has been tested in an extraordinary fashion, pushing the boundaries of human intuition beyond breaking point by measuring a pulse of light in 37 dimensions.

The film explores the properties of light, including reflection and refraction, through various experiments. It demonstrates how light travels in straight lines, how mirrors can reflect images, and ...

Physicists have taken quantum strangeness to an extraordinary new level by measuring light across 37 dimensions. Their groundbreaking experiment pushes quantum mechanics beyond classical expectations, ...

By directly communicating with the brain, a new wireless device could someday help restore lost senses or manage pain without medications, its developers say.

Anne L’Huillier of Lund University, Pierre Agostini of The Ohio State University, and Ferenc Krausz of the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics won this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics “for ...

From a telescope network that spans much of the globe to a psychology study that spans 67 countries, here are the biggest science experiments on the planet. When you purchase through links on our site ...

Green light means “go.” That might apply to evaporating water molecules too. Visible light, especially that of a greenish hue, might spur water to evaporate, researchers report in the Nov. 7 ...
