Researchers have developed a new theory that explains why tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR)—used in magnetic memory and other ...

A new method to analyze gravitational-wave data could transform how we study some of the universe's most extreme events—black ...

Wave-particle duality is a cornerstone of quantum mechanics, which is our modern theory of how subatomic particles behave.

Gravitational waves, the result of two black holes merging, have been detected by a sophisticated observatory. Scientists say that proves Einstein was right.

Their research unveils the existence of traveling waves of the neurochemical acetylcholine in the striatum, a region of the brain responsible for motivating actions and habitual behaviors.

The history of science is marked by an intense debate between the particle and wave theories of light. Isaac Newton was the main advocate of the particle theory, while James Clerk Maxwell and his ...

Those waves, experts think, could therefore be used to determine conditions present during the first epoch of rapid inflation in our universe, or maybe even the conditions present before the Big Bang.

Physicists at the University of Southampton have tested and proven a 50-year-old theory for the first time using electro-magnetic waves. They have shown that the energy of waves can be increased ...

One of the highlights of the video is the way the pilot wave theory explains the findings of one of the bedrock quantum mechanical experiments, the double-slit experiment.

Wondering what it is about a place that makes waves lurch 30 or 50 feet out of the ocean, to crash ashore with enough force to register at earthquake sensors? Check out Quest, a show about science ...

Last year, pilot wave theory received another boost when MIT physicists Daniel Harris and John Bush used a similar fluid system to mimic a “quantum corral,” in which electrons are trapped ...

A new variation of the classic double-slit experiment confirms that antimatter, like normal matter, has wave-particle duality.
