The idea that light has momentum is not new, but the exact nature of how light interacts with matter has remained a mystery for close to 150 years. New research from UBC's Okanagan campus, recently ...

Mirror, mirror on the wall, how do light and matter mingle after all? Scientists have known for a while that light has momentum and exerts force on whatever it hits. But because this momentum is so ...

Discover how imparting momentum from light enhances our understanding of quantum mechanics and its applications in technology. Great, so we understand light, and the quantum realm, just that much ...

The novel discovery solves the centennial momentum paradox of light. In the literature, there has existed two different values for the momentum of light in the transparent medium. Typically, these ...

Aug. 21 (UPI) --Scientists have solved a 150-year-old mystery about the nature of light-matter interactions. Researchers were able to measure the force light exerts on matter. The breakthrough ...
