Physics meets art: A new twist on interference patterns Date: March 27, 2025 Source: Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo Summary: Researchers have discovered brand new ...

One of the simplest and most beautiful naturally occurring patterns can be observed when light is shined through a pair of slightly misaligned periodic structures. This phenomenon, known as the ...

One line of evidence "involves detecting complicated quantum interference patterns, which is impossible in standard quantum physics but should occur in quantum gravity," Minic added.

Quantum computers that were previously limited to theoretical physics now learn to discover patterns, optimize decisions and ...

The first real-time movie of large molecules creating an interference pattern after passing through two slits has been made by an international team of physicists. As well as being a beautiful example ...

Looped trajectories of photons in a three-slit interference experiment could modify the resulting intensity pattern, but they are experimentally hard to observe. Here the authors exploit surface ...

Exotic paths: artist's impression of the microwave triple-slot experiment. Courtesy: G Rengaraj et al / New Journal of Physics) The importance of including exotic “non-classical paths” in analyses of ...

For example, one-dimensional interacting bosons exhibit interference patterns with a reduced contrast and with non-negligible shot-to-shot fluctuations of the fringe contrast.

High-resolution images measured using the scanning tunneling microscope show quantum interference patterns in magic-angle graphene. The ways that these patterns change across the material tells ...

We've learned about light and how to bend it to our will. But what can we LEARN from it?
