Researchers have, for the first time, described the properties of one-dimensional anyons and outlined how these particles can be observed using existing experimental setups.

Physicists 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 ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Two Physical Review A papers outline how anyons could exist in one dimension, and how cold-atom experiments might spot them.

The primary objective of acoustic metamaterial research is to design subwavelength systems that behave as effective materials with novel acoustical properties. One such property couples the ...
