A recent series of experiments has revisited the famous double-slit experiment, challenging some of Albert Einstein's long-standing doubts about quantum mechanics. New findings demonstrate that particles of light can pass tests traditionally used to confirm quantum entanglement without actually being entangled. This suggests that quantum nonlocality, often referred to as 'quantum spookiness,' may arise from quantum indistinguishability rather than entanglement itself. The experiments also revealed violations of Bell's inequality using unentangled photons, further supporting this interpretation. Additionally, researchers have discovered a new quantum state of matter at the interface of exotic materials, described as a supersolid light or a mysterious quantum liquid crystal, which challenges classical physics. These advances open new frontiers in quantum physics, including the identification of particles previously unpredicted by theory and potential implications for understanding gravity through concepts like a dark mirror of our universe.
