Scientists observe "negative time" in quantum experiments, challenging understanding without suggesting time travel.
Scientists at the University of Toronto have observed "negative time" in quantum experiments, where atoms briefly remain in an excited state for less than zero seconds. This phenomenon, seen when photons pass through atoms, suggests a quirk in quantum mechanics rather than a shift in time comprehension. The findings, awaiting peer review, don't imply time travel or violate relativity but could advance quantum physics understanding.
