Physicists confirm 67-year-old prediction of massless, neutral composite particle
BYLINE: Michael O’Boyle Newswise — In 1956, theoretical physicist David Pines predicted that electrons in a solid can do something strange. While they normally have a mass and an electric…
Researchers use SPAD detector to achieve 3D quantum ghost imaging
Researchers developed a new approach that allows 3D measurements to be acquired with a computational imaging approach known as quantum ghost imaging. A SPAD array detector, shown on the left…
