The double-slit experiment, first performed by [Thomas Young] in 1801 provided the first definitive proof of the dual wave-particle nature of photons. A similar experiment can be performed that shows ...
Several weeks ago I picked up “The Elegant Universe” because I thought it would have information on The Ultimate Theory. Soon afterwards, I picked up “How to Teach Physics To Your Dog” in order to get ...

Physicists using the SOLEIL synchrotron in France are the closest yet to realizing a thought experiment first proposed in 1927 by Albert Einstein. A variation on the much-loved double-slit experiment, ...
