Quantum phenomena

The strange dance of ion and atom

Scientific discovery: researchers have seen phenomena from quantum mechanics in the movement of pendulums

The new system makes it possible to observe the phenomena that occur inside special "topological" materials by photographing the movement of pendulums using a normal camera

Towards the discovery of quantum phenomena that have not yet been observed: Prof. Ado Kaminer of the Technion won an ERC Consolidator grant

"The observations will be made possible through the control we have developed over the wave nature of free electrons," explains Prof. Kaminer

For the first time: the experiment of the two cracks in the timeline

In an article published in the magazine Nature Physics, a team of researchers from Britain, the USA, Germany and Australia demonstrated for the first time the two cracks experiment in the timeline. Instead of a spatial dispersion on a screen, the temporal crack created a dispersion in the light spectrum,
