Scientists Create Exotic “Anyons” in One-Dimensional Quantum Gas

In a stunning first, scientists observed anyons—exotic particles with in-between statistics—in a 1D ultracold gas. This discovery could pave the way for advanced quantum states and potentially transform quantum computing. In the universe, everything is built from just two fundamental types of particles: fermions and bosons. Fermions, like electrons and quarks, are the building blocks [...]
