The wave-particle duality is one of those essential pillars. Physics courses devote weeks to just introducing it – but there are still important aspects that can be covered in a short article.

Light is everywhere,it illuminates our world, enables vision, and travels across galaxies. But what is light, really? Is it a wave or a particle? The answer is both,and neither, depending on how ...

The double-slit experiment was designed to investigate whether light is a wave or a particle. It is one of the most famous and weirdest experiments in physics.

Wave-particle duality in action—big molecules surf on their own waves Heavy molecules reveal wave-like properties after scattering from light beam.

"The peaks represent sites of high amplitude in the wave function. Electrons have a dual wave-particle nature, and we are visualizing the wave properties of the electron in the quantum dot." ...
