Researchers create a one-dimensional gas out of light
Posted by Saúl Morales Rodriguéz in category: quantum physics
Physicists at the University of Bonn and the University of Kaiserslautern-Landau (RPTU) have created a one-dimensional gas out of light. This has enabled them to test theoretical predictions about the transition into this exotic state of matter for the first time. The method used in the experiment by the researchers could be used for examining quantum effects. The results have been published in Nature Physics.
