Scientists have made the first experimental observation of matter wave diffraction in a short-lived electron-positron atom. A ...

Wave or particle? Science continues to unravel one of humanity's greatest mysteries in this universe in rather useful ways.

Artist Marco Ortiga first noticed wave interference, or the effect known as moiré, while working as a production designer working on a local TV show, when certain clothe would mess with the cameras.

Physicists have proposed a way to extract the internal quantum states of electron wave packets by analyzing how those packets ...

For decades, astronomers have been puzzled by strange “zebra stripe” patterns in radio waves from the Crab Pulsar — bright bands separated by complete darkness. Now, new research suggests the answer ...

Light is well known to exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, as imaged here in this 2015 photograph. What's less well appreciated is that matter particles also exhibit those wave-like ...
