Researchers shrink double-slit experiment to atomic scale – Physics World
5+ day, 18+ hour ago (422+ words) The double-slit experiment is perhaps the most iconic demonstration in quantum mechanics: showing how a single particle’s wavefunction interferes with itself as it passes through two slits at once, with a tangible impact on where the particle is ultimately observed....
Sliding water droplets corrode Teflon-coated metal – Physics World
1+ week, 5+ day ago (156+ words) Water droplets sliding across solid surfaces can acquire electric potentials of thousands of volts and thereby corrode non-conductive surfaces on metals when they discharge. That is the conclusion of researchers in Germany who say that the poorly-understood phenomenon warrants further…...
