Researchers have used a 350-year-old theorem to better understand the strange nature of light. The team took a theorem used for describing pendulums and substituted the brightness of light in for what ...
In 1845, physicist Michael Faraday provided the first direct evidence that electromagnetism and light are related. Now, it turns out that this connection is even stronger than Faraday imagined. In his ...
Chapter 1: What is light? There was a mystery in that assuming either light is a wave or a particle would result in contradictory phenomena, but today quantum electrodynamics is recognized as the most ...

Light particle hits 37 dimensions at once, and scientists proved it
A team of quantum physicists has taken a concept that once lived purely in equations and turned it into hardware reality, creating a single particle of light that behaves as if it occupies 37 distinct ...
University of Illinois Physics Professor Paul Kwiat and members of his research group have developed a new tool for precision measurement at the nanometer scale in scenarios where background noise and ...
