This paper has been withdrawn by the authors since it was strongly elaborated, some new sections appeared. This made the paper significantly differ from current version. Besides two new authors participated in the work. So the authors…
The wave-particle duality is the main point of demarcation between quantum and classical physics, and is the quintessential mystery of quantum mechanics. Young's two-slit interference experiment is the arch prototype of actual and gedanken…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author(s), due a crucial error in Eqn. 30.
The momentum changes caused by position measurements are a central feature of wave-particle duality. Here we investigate two cases - localization by a single slit, and which-way detection in the double-slit interference experiment - and…
Quantum mechanical wave-particle duality is quantified in terms of a trade-off relation between the fringe visibility and the which-way distinguishability in an interference experiment. This relation is recently generalized by Banaszek et.…
In this essay, I argue that modern science is not the dichotomous pairing of theory and experiment that it is typically presented as, and I offer an alternative paradigm defined by its functions as a human endeavor. I also demonstrate how…
Wheeler's delayed-choice experiment was conceived to illustrate the paradoxical nature of wave-particle duality in quantum mechanics. In the experiment, quantum light can exhibit either wave-like interference patterns or particle-like…
This brief note outlines a detector for the Homestake Laboratory and the physics experiments that might be done with it. The note might go on record as a letter of intent to be converted to a formal proposal at a later time.

Detecting a change point is a crucial task in statistics that has been recently extended to the quantum realm. A source state generator that emits a series of single photons in a default state suffers an alteration at some point and starts…

In this work the possibility of detecting the presence of a Yukawa term, as an additional contribution to the usual Newtonian gravitational potential, is introduced. The central idea is to analyze the effects at quantum level employing…
This paper is being withdrawn because another paper by the author makes it obsolete. See comments for directions to new paper.
The goal of the paper is twofold: it aims to give an extensive set of tools and bibliography towards Nowicki's conjecture both in an associative setting; it establishes a new result about Nowicki's conjecture for the free metabelian Poisson…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to new results to be added.
The next generation of observatories will facilitate the discovery of new types of astrophysical transients. The detection of such phenomena, whose characteristics are presently poorly constrained, will hinge on the ability to perform blind…
The paper has been withdrawn because the research work is still in progress.

The delayed-choice quantum eraser has long been a subject of controversy, and has been looked at as being incomprehensible to having retro-causal effect in time. Here the delayed-choice quantum eraser is theoretically analyzed using…
