Isi artikel
It is poetic justice that the latest attempt to sweep away Einstein's version of the world in its turn also relies on an interferometer. This time, though, the beams travelling through it are made not of light, but of atoms. The second big difference, besides relativity, between classical and modern physics, is quantum theory. This depends on all waves also being particles, and all particles waves. So it is possible to make an atomic wave-beam, split it, and recombine it just as if it were light. And that is precisely what a team led by Robert Bingham of the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and Charles Wang of Aberdeen University, both in Britain, plan to do.
