Physicists from Darmstadt propose a new method to measure the time it takes for particles to tunnel, challenging previous experiments that suggested particles could move faster than the speed of light. This phenomenon, known as quantum tunneling, allows particles to pass through barriers even if they don't have enough energy to go over them. This effect has practical applications, such as in fla
