Could this “spooky action at a distance” lead us one step closer to the ever-elusive Unified Theory of Everything?

The nature of quantum particles has long puzzled scientists. While single-particle interference suggests that a photon can ...

This collage highlights several concepts proposed by 2024 NIAC Phase I awardees, including miniaturized interstellar spacecraft, a Venus glider, a water detoxifier for Mars, a solar-system-scale ...

Primordial black holes (PBHs) are particularly special types of black hole, thought to have been formed from dense pockets of ...

The dream of finding life on an alien Earth-like world is hampered by a number of technical challenges. Not the least of which is that the Earth is dwarfed by the size and brightness of the sun. We ...

Radio telescopes are one of the dark arts of science. Not only do you have to deal with RF wizardry, the photons you’re detecting are so far out of the normal human experience that you really don’t ...

Physicists have created a quantum interferometer on an atom chip. This device can be used to explore the fundamentals of quantum theory by studying the interference pattern between two beams of atoms.

Who’s who: The quantum Alice in Wonderland would like to understand whether the many “Twindeldum-Twindeldees” she sees are really identical or not, and uses the new interferometer for this purpose.

The AIMS Interferometer represents over 20 years leading edge development resulting in easy to use, robust products, which have been specifically optimised for each measurement application. All ...

Closing the loop on a V8 piezo linear motor with a laser interferometer: resolution down to 0.15 nanometers is achievable. Here's how it works: https://www.pi-usa.us ...

Hard X-ray phase-contrast imaging characterizes the electron density distribution in an object without the need for radiation absorption. The power of phase contrast to resolve subtle changes, such as ...
