Quantum prediction from 1931 confirmed by experiment

Original: A quantum prediction from 1931 just came to life

Physicists report that a quantum prediction first made in 1931 has now been realised experimentally, nearly a century after it was proposed. The finding validates a long-standing theoretical expectation from early quantum mechanics, and science news outlets are highlighting the unusually long gap between prediction and confirmation. Details of the specific experiment and team remain limited, but the result is being framed as a landmark moment for quantum physics.

Why now: Fresh coverage of a nearly century-old quantum theory being experimentally confirmed is drawing attention from science readers.
