Even younger: illustration of the new double-slit experiment using resonant inelastic X-ray scattering on an iridium oxide crystal. An intense beam of high-energy X-ray photons (violet) hits two ...

Scientists observe unusual interference phenomena by scattering laser light from two atoms trapped inside an optical resonator. MPQ scientists observe unusual interference phenomena by scattering ...

Schematic of the MIT experiment: Two single atoms floating in a vacuum chamber are illuminated by a laser beam and act as the two slits. The interference of the scattered light is recorded with a ...

More than 200 years ago, the English scientist Thomas Young carried out a famous test known as the “double-slit experiment.” He shone a beam of light at a screen with two slits in it, and observed ...
