Physicists have manipulated individual particles of light, photons, under ultra-stable laboratory conditions. They split a solitary photon into two distinct lower-energy entities, observing with ...

Researchers find that a photon can spend a negative amount of time in an excited atomic state while passing through a cloud ...

Scientists have, for the first time, experimentally proven that angular momentum is conserved even when a single photon splits into two, pushing quantum physics to its most fundamental limits. Using ...

Scientists at CERN’s ATLAS experiment have uncovered compelling evidence of Higgs bosons decaying into muons, an incredibly rare event that could deepen our understanding of how particles acquire mass ...
