This project delves into the principles of interference, particularly focusing on how light waves interact with very thin films, like those seen in soap bubbles or oil slicks. The post is in ...

Join Curt Jaimungal talks to Harvard physicist Jacob Barandes and Scott Aaronson. Jacob Barandes claims quantum mechanics can ...

These are all words we’d use to describe this video by [BrendaEM] about her Homemade 3D Optical Interference Scanner ... analog in the video at 2:00 with waves in a plastic container.

Interference can arise with one source of waves where the waves travel different distances before meeting. The difference in the distance travelled (the path difference) must be a full number of ...

This "dance of waves" affects how molecules exchange energy and momentum with surfaces, and ultimately how efficiently they react. But until now, observing quantum interference in surface ...

Scientists have revealed how quantum interference and symmetry dictate molecular behavior in collisions with gold surfaces, offering new insights into molecular interactions. The findings can have ...

They discovered that a photon, which interferes with itself due to its behavior as an electromagnetic wave, is also able to form interference patterns together with other light particles.

This is a sound wave of me saying "hello." And here's "goodbye." See? They're different. Now, if you played both sounds at the same time, you get a phenomenon called constructive interference.
