The wave-particle duality is one of those essential pillars. Physics courses devote weeks to just introducing it – but there ...

Now scientists from the University of California San Diego have uncovered a key finding to another unique property: at high ...

Wave particle duality The photoelectric effect shows that light is made up of individual photons. Photoemissions will take place if photons have a high enough frequency and have enough energy.

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the ...

New data identify gyro-resonant wave–particle interactions as the culprit. According to the radial diffusion model, electrons are transported to within 2.5 Earth radii (Re) during magnetic ...

Here's one of the quirky things about quantum mechanics: just because an electron or a photon can be thought of as a particle, doesn't mean they can't still be though of as a wave as well.

Wave–particle duality is the concept in quantum mechanics that every particle or quantum entity may be described as either a particle or a wave. It expresses the inability of the classical concepts ...

Photoemission is a process during which electrons are ejected from a metal surface when exposed to electromagnetic radiation, (eg ultraviolet). If a clean, positively charged zinc plate is exposed ...
