Can a photon be caught behaving like a wave and a particle in the same run of an experiment? For almost a century, that ...

MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum physics. Their findings demonstrate, with atomic-level precision, the dual yet evasive nature of ...
