The double-slit experiment and interferometry as a whole are corner-stones of quantum physics. Any coherent system, e.g., light, electrons or the neutrons regarded in this letter, may exhibit ...

A prototype quantum sensor developed by researchers at Imperial has demonstrated for the first time that a key principle ...

Future space missions could use quantum technologies to help us understand the physical laws that govern the universe, explore the composition of other planets and their moons, gain insights into ...

The trouble with listening for the faintest events in the universe is that your own instrument often drowns them out. However ...

Results are presented for real-time seismic imaging of subsurface fluid flow by parsimonious refraction and surface-wave interferometry. Each subsurface velocity image inverted from time-lapse seismic ...

Scientists have observed “bending” atoms using a crystal grating—an experiment once believed impossible at the high energies required. The authors of a new, non-peer reviewed study detail how the a ...

One of the most important experiments of quantum physics gets a makeover: When neutrons are fired at a crystal, they can be made to travel along two paths at the same time. Until now, this was only ...

Physicists 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 of atoms.

This includes proposals such as the Atom Interferometry CERN Experiment (AICE), which would apply similar techniques over ...
