Scientists have created the first real-time 3D simulations of how lasers alter the quantum vacuum. Using cutting-edge computational modeling, scientists from the University of Oxford, in collaboration ...

For the first time, physicists have simulated what objects moving near the speed of light would look like — an optical ...

A new study published in the journal Physics Letters B claims that dark matter can be detected through a "fingerprint" in red ...

Physicists in Toronto observe quantum “negative time”: a pulse of light appears to leave before entering atoms.

A team of physicists from the Faculty of Physics at the University of Warsaw, the Center for New Technologies at the ...

Squeezed light is a specialized form of light in which quantum fluctuations are redistributed between two complementary ...

In a stunning leap for quantum optics, scientists have generated ultrafast light pulses whose quantum uncertainty can be ...

Dark matter, the substance that makes up about 27% of the universe, could potentially be detected as a red or blue light ...

In 1964, physicist John Bell formulated what became known as Bell's Theorem, showing that if quantum mechanics is correct, ...

A new experiment has demonstrated something that sounds physically impossible – light itself casting a shadow. It turns out that if you manipulate a laser just right, then hit it side-on with another ...

Superradiance When multiple electrons emit light in a coordinated manner, the resulting emission is much stronger than the sum of individual emissions. (Courtesy ...
