That idea clashes with the classical expectation that each particle should possess its own separate physical reality, a feature of quantum mechanics that famously troubled Albert Einstein.

But in particle physics, failing to detect something can still provide important information by ruling out where it could exist.

Improbably he wondered if the neutron–the subatomic particle that had just been discovered in England by James Chadwick, and was thus both novel and rather fashionable–might be at the heart of things.

As tiny particles from the comet enter the Earth's atmosphere at high speed, they heat up and produce streaks of light across the night sky that we see as meteors.

In an entangled system, particles such as photons become linked so deeply that their properties cannot be fully described independently.

Terpenes such as pinene from pine trees, for example, can participate in reactions that generate tiny airborne particles.
