Read the fascinating stories about what life was like at the time of quantum entanglement's discovery in Louisa Gilder's "The Age of Entanglement: When Quantum Physics Was Reborn" (Deckle Edge, 2008).

According to scientific legend, quantum mechanics was born on the island of Helgoland in 1925. A hundred years later, ...

Consider the famous double-slit experiment of quantum physics (SN: 5/3/19). Particles are sent toward a detector, separated by a barrier with two slits in it.

Quantum physics, a century old, still passes understanding. That’s Maths: Werner Heisenberg’s seminal work on quantum theory, published in 1925, represented the dawn of a new era in physics.
