Quantum 'Negative Time' Confirmed in Photon Experiment
TL;DR. A University of Toronto experiment confirmed photons can spend negative time inside an atom cloud, appearing to exit before entering. - Photons registered negative atomic-excitation time after passing through cold rubidium. - The effect, confirmed after 1 million test runs, is fully explained by standard physics, not faster-than-light travel. - This research builds on a 1993 experiment showing photons reaching detectors before their pulse center.
- A University of Toronto experiment confirmed 'negative time' for photons.
- Photons appear to exit an atom cloud before entering, registering negative atomic-excitation time.
- The effect was proven after 1 million test runs and clears peer review.
- Standard physics fully explains the phenomenon, with no faster-than-light signaling involved.
