PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] — New research by physicists from Brown University puts the profound strangeness of quantum mechanics in a nutshell — or, more accurately, in a helium bubble.

One of the most fundamental interactions in physics is that of electrons and light. In an experiment, scientists have now managed to observe what is known as the Kapitza-Dirac effect for the first ...

Electron beam oscillators utilising surface wave structures represent a key technology in the generation of high‐power electromagnetic radiation. By deploying relativistic electron beams in ...

Four years ago the first modern electron microscope was exhibited by the Siemens & Halske A.-G., in Berlin (TIME, June 6, 1938). Two years ago the R.C.A. Laboratories completed the first commercial ...

Sung to the abbess’s lines in “Maria” from The Sound of Music: “How do you catch a wave like Maria? How do you grab a cloud and pin it down? Oh, how do you solve a particle like Maria? How do you hold ...

Electron holography is based on the fundamental principles of holography, which involves the recording and reconstruction of wavefronts. In holography, a hologram is created by capturing the ...

This is an electron wave quantum hologram displaying the initials "SU" of Stanford University. The yellow area is a copper surface. The holes in the copper are molecules of carbon monoxide. Constantly ...

Scientists have discovered a way to efficiently transfer electrical current through specific materials at room temperature, a finding that could revolutionize superconductivity and reshape energy ...

Imagine standing by a lake and throwing a stone into the water. Waves spread out in circular patterns and can reflect at ...

(Nanowerk News) One of the most fundamental interactions in physics is that of electrons and light. In an experiment at Goethe University Frankfurt, scientists have now managed to observe what is ...
