Photons are particles of light, or waves, or something like that, right? [Mithuna Yoganathan] explains this conundrum in more detail than you probably got in your high school physics class.

Albert Einstein shook up physics by proposing that light wasn’t just a wave, but it could also behave like a collection of ...

"In a quantum theater, where bosonic particles (particles with integer spin) go, everyone can sit in the central seat, forming what is called a Bose–Einstein condensate—a superfluid state in which a ...

Observing the interactions between dark matter and so-called "dark photons" during a period after the Big Bang called the "cosmic dawn" could help shed light on the universe's most mysterious and ...

There are a couple of ways we check this. The main method is to follow the emission of two photons with complementary wavelengths. In 2PE you produce pairs of photons whose combined energy adds up ...
