Time-Traveling Photons
This month, we highlight researchers at the University of Queensland who have simulated time travel with quantum particles. Specifically, they have shown that one photon can pass through a hole and then interact with its older self. There is ongoing work by a company in Idaho to develop solar-paneled roads and other such surfaces, with the ultimate goal of generating widespread green renewable energy. We also learn about researchers in the U.K. who have employed hyperspectral imaging to reveal never-before-seen pictographic scenes from a 500-year old Mexican scroll. And we offer a glimpse at the October issue of Photonics Spectra, which includes a special section dedicated entirely to the field of optics, in a nod to The Optical Society's 100th anniversary.
