Physicists in Israel have created a quantum interferometer on an atom chip. This device can be used to explore the fundamentals of quantum theory by studying the interference pattern between two beams ...

All in a spin: Two indistinguishable photons (red lines) are incident on a beamsplitter cube and become entangled. The two photons are then coupled into an optical fibre-based interferometer, which is ...

Quantum mechanics is weird. When you think you have reached the bottom of its weirdness, you always discover a new ...

A Michelson interferometer spectrometer carried aboard the Nimbus 3 satellite, launched 14 April 1969, measured the spectrum between 400 and 2000 wave numbers with a resolution of 5 wave numbers. High ...

Arvix paper contends the spacetime distortions resulting from the experimentally obtainable electric field of a parallel plate capacitor configuration cannot be detected by the White-Juday Warp Field ...
