Experiments on individual photons conducted by physicists from the Faculty of Physics at the University of Warsaw (FUW) and the Faculty of Applied Physics and Mathematics at the Gdansk University of Technology (PG), have revealed yet another bizarre feature of the quantum world. When a quantum object is transmitted, its quantum property, whether it behaves as a wave or as a particle, appears to depend on other properties that at first glance have nothing to do with the transmission, they argue. read more
