The weird way that light can behave as both a wave and a particle has been known to physicists for about a century, but a team in Lausanne has only now managed to capture it doing both at the same ...

However, light's double nature, known as wave particle duality, is absolutely fundamental to the existence of the world as we ...

The principle of wave-particle duality is crucial in quantum physics, highlighting the dual nature of light and matter and ...

Does light behave more like a particle, or like a wave? Today we know the surprising answer. Here's why it took so long to get there. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

In the process, their experiment included photons in 37 dimensions, taking science even further down this strange quantum ...

For Higher Physics, revise light's particle-like properties and how the properties of photons are explained by the photoelectric effect.

A newly discovered radio halo, 10 billion light-years away, reveals that galaxy clusters in the early universe were already steeped in high-energy particles. The finding hints at ancient black hole ...

The hypothetical faster-than-light particle known as the tachyon may marry with the special theory of relativity, according to a team of physicists, making its existence more plausible.

Confirming a long-held theoretical prediction, a survey of 26,000 white dwarfs found that the hotter they are, the more bloated are their outer layers.

An international team of scientists, led by Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) and drawing on expertise from Cardiff University, have started the Any Light Particle Search (ALPS II) experiment.
