The Millie Micro Nano Pico series
Millie micro nano pico is a series of witty educational stories about the subatomic world that introduce a few basic concepts of quantum physics. The magic words "Millie micro nano pico" are used by Millie, the pussycat, to become small enough to play with elementary particles such as electrons, p...…

Quantum Physics quirks
Scientists were really confused when they discovered how tiny things, like electrons and photons, behave. It was like they had stumbled into a strange new world where the rules they knew no longer worked! Here are some of the surprises they found:
1. Wave or Particle? Both!
Scientists though...…
