In a remarkable development, researchers have successfully turned light into a supersolid for the first time, paving the way for new insights into the unusual quantum states of matter. This ...

Physicists have taken a step that sounds like science fiction: they have coaxed light into behaving as a “supersolid,” a ...

Light, in its basic photon form, has been manipulated by scientists to behave like a solid. As a result, this expands the possibility of transforming other elements too and accelerates physics to a ...
